Please join us for the November RWC Meeting! We're wrapping PJ's for charity and voting on the city gift. Read on for details....
RWC is November 27th at 7:00pm at the home of Carolyn Horne - 4828 Timberline Drive. Please remember to bring PJs to wrap! (new only, pj's sizes 0-16, no flannel, no "mommy loves me," etc, no scary images) Feel free to bring solid color wrapping paper if you like. And if you are unable to make the meeting, there is a collection box at city hall for PJs or you can leave them at Carolyn's house.
Also, we will be voting on our monetary gift to the city. This year, we have one request from Barry Bone that we fund a portion of the new landscaping design for city hall. We will have more specifics at the meeting but it will make our voting easy!! Please note the brief review of parliamentarian procedure below for the meeting. Melissa Morrow will be there to help keep the meeting in order - thanks Melissa!
