Beth has decorated tables - usually three each year! - for us almost every year. We appreciate her support so much! Don’t forget… you have another chance to win something... By registering for the June 13th event, your name will be entered into our raffle drawing, which will take place during the live event. Winners will be notified and delivery arranged. You could be the lucky winner of one of these fantastic prizes… We appreciate the opportunity to share with you a little bit about the Society's works. However, it would not be possible to do what we do without YOU! We thank you for your donations! Your kindness and generosity touch the lives of so many right here in our community!
