Altrusa Newsletter, Issue No. 25, November 18, 2016
WOW! All I can say is WOW! What a great team effort putting together a fabulous 30th Anniversary Taste of The Holidays. Shirley had an amazing team of committee chairs and co-chairs and Traci will benefit from that going into the 31st Taste of the Holidays in 2017. Melissa Bragg reported $18,000 raised from raffle for scholarships for Theresa's year. We will have a number soon for Theresa's projects for 2017. I can hardly wait to hear that number.
We had a room full of smiling faces even though we had a small issue with getting the desserts to the Mayborn Center. I think we made history with this Taste! If you have not heard Debbie Fendrick's story of getting the desserts ready to go, you should ask her the next time you see her. I especially enjoyed the "arm pit" part of the story.
A big Thank You to Theresa Reese for handing out Temple Art Competition Checks Saturday evening. The Art Competition was sponsored by Altrusa International of Temple, TX, Inc. and Temple Rotary Club South and $2,100 in prize money was awarded.
Don't forget to join us for our meeting Tuesday, November 22nd. It will be full of brags and stories about our 30th Anniversary Taste of The Holidays.
If you have service hours or community hours to go toward our goal of 100 hours for each Temple Altrusan, please email those hours to Chip by simply clicking on his name and emailing the hours. How easy is that...no muss no fuss...no form to fill out!
Thank you for all you do for our community and THANK YOU for allowing me to serve you.
