Fundraising Update

We all came up with some great ideas! Please email me back to let me know if you are interested in helping with fund-raising, if you have personal contacts who can assist us in this endeavor, or if you have thought of other ideas since we met. You do not need to respond if you do not plan to participate. Only those participating in the fundraising events will be able to benefit from the monies raised.

Our next meeting will be at the GCHS Cougar Meeting Room at 6:00 pm on December 3, 2009. Please join us if interested, and were not able to stay after the meeting last night. The sooner we get started, the more money we can make! Thanks to everyone for their assistance!
