This Week:   Guest and Speaker for this morning was Jennifer Marusak.  Hot news for the morning’s activities is that Gerry Leblanc won the Lottery to the tune of $96.00. That is a nice little stash of cash.   Congratulations to her. 

** Of special note please be aware of the Board/Pepper Festival Meeting on August 16, @ 7 p.m.  The meal will be a spaghetti dinner that is Dutch treat at Petit Paris Café.  Please try to attend  the meeting to help plan for our “ONE AND ONLY” fundraiser.
