Holiday Greetings - I hope you had a chance to get outside this past weekend. The weather was beautiful with lots of sunshine. A bit chilly, perhaps but we had a great time ringing the Salvation Army bells on Saturday at the Westroads JC Penny. What an eye-opener. People can be so giving. I found young people, teenagers and young adults stopped, turned around to come back and drop something in the bucket. But, then, I found that several elderly ladies also, took the time to dig out their wallet and bring a few dollars to the bucket, even though they had already stepped out into the chilly wind. Families were busy bringing in their children and some would donate. The faces of the small children made me think of those little ones who are less privileged but will benefit from the work of the Salvation Army. It was great to see such a giving spirit among the customers.  I'm glad I was a part of it. Thank you, to everyone that participated. And, if you didn't have time this year, maybe next year you'll be able to give an hour of your time, simply ringing a bell. Thank you to John Wehrle for his work in taking over this project this year. He did a great job.

 

Now, get on the horn or shoot an email to five people to invite them to one of our Friday meetings. We do great work because it gives us an opportunity to benefit children in need. We love our club. Have a great week!
