We are currently working on dates and locations. Please check the web site, email notifications and council email updates every Monday for more details when available.

3. The Annual Thanksgiving Project will be starting later this month and John Mayni will be sending out his letter requesting donations. This is one of our greatest programs that has been cunducted for over 15 years. And if donations exceed the needs requested for Thanksgiving, we are then able to help out at Christmas and Easter. So please be as generous as possible when John comes calling.
