Our annual fundraiser will not be held on April 21st out of an abundance of caution due to the Coronavirus outbreak. The event will take place at a time when the current health crisis has significantly passed.
The board will reevaluate the situation on a regular basis and any decisions will be science based and as health guidelines permit.
The Fundraiser is the major part of our yearly budget. Your participation and generosity is greatly appreciated once we do resume. We feel the line-up of items we have available this year is the best ever offered, including 8 trips. A list of items will follow in the next newsletter and be updated on our website. Obviously, we are disappointed, but the show will go on as soon as the current health crisis has passed.
