Greetings!
If you have not paid your dues, please do so no later than October 31st. Send a check to Phyllis Bradford. Dues are $65.00 each year.
Our thoughts and prayers are extended to our DKG sisters: Maria Young on the passing of her mother, Ann Case and Anne Knowlton whose mother, Mary Stephenson, also passed.
The 2016-2017 DKG Handbooks were distributed at the last meeting in October. If you did not get your handbook, please plan to receive yours at the November meeting. Everyone should look through the handbook and become familiar with upcoming meetings and events.
We hope everyone is selling those $5.00 tickets for our gift card wreath. These donations will benefit mini-grants for new teachers! What a great idea! Please bring tickets (sold and unsold) and money to the November 3rd meeting so that we may select a winner! YAY!
Committees will meet at the November meeting to discuss various upcoming events and activities. We will also present the names of new prospective members.
Meeting sponsors:
Mrs. Clara Hunkapillar will present the devotion/collect at the November meeting.
Our Rules and Bylaws committee will be the hostesses for snacks at the meeting.
Thanks for all you do, everyday, for our students and community!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Linda Parks
Happy Birthday to all of our November sisters!!!
