This was a round table meeting in the main dining room at the Thayer. An interesting discussion re: possible fundraisers for the upcoming year. (Fruit, dinner theatre, etc.)

 

Winter’s Here! – Both the Episcopal & Catholic Church thrift shops will be operating 2nd & 4th Wed. of month. (Have any worm clothing for them?)

Repeat -Phil Brillante’s Quote: - “Interact did great job during football season. Also, Dave Sutton is at war again (the penny war) at the High School. Classes compete raising pennies.”
