Reveille, APR 11, 2019 (Apr 11, 2019)

Karla Dwyer and the reverse raffle committee members provided updates and last minute instructions on what to expect this weekend at our reverse raffle. We have sold 177 or 180 tickets and are certain to sell the remaining three by Saturday. Please meet at the Moose Lodge tomorrow (Friday) at 5:30 PM if you are willing and able to help replace some damaged or missing ceiling tiles. Zach S. will be there with a crew of people and supplies. If you have supplies that you think might be helpful in that process bring them along. The Reverse Raffle is Saturday, 13APR. Karla has informed everyone what time they need to be there, and what their assignment is for the evening. If you have questions at this point please contact her directly. Karla thanked everyone for the efforts in this event so far, especially the committee members who work all year long on pulling this off. We also owe a debt of gratitude to Karla, who was the Club President when we started this fundraiser and has been a key player in putting it together each year since.
