Thank you!!

HI Ladies:

The GFWC Brandon Jr. Woman's Club, 3rd Annual Santa in September Scrapbooking Fundraiser was a huge success!!

Thanks to all of you who came to the event, invited friends, brought school supplies, purchased raffle tickets/silent auction items and other goodies!!

All of our efforts combined netted $2,100.00 + School Supplies that will be used for our Annual Children's Holiday Party in December!! These children are so very grateful and thankful for your support, each year we are blessed to be able to watch these children open their gifts of toys, clothing, shoes, school supplies etc. Many have not had a gift in their lifetime, it is a very heartwarming experience, and all of you have helped make this event happen once again. Thank you!

The GFWC Brandon Jr. Woman's Club will be hosting another great fundraiser to support Arts in our community. Everyone is invited to attend on Thursdsay, October 1st, as we will be having our General Meeting and Make It, Bake It, Take It Auction. This auction is composed of home made goodies, crafts, gifts, and not so homemade items donated by our club members, this live auction will begin at 8:00 p.m. at our clubhouse located on 129 N Moon Ave. You are also invited to attend our General meeting prior to the auction beginning at 7:00 p.m., we are always welcoming new members. Please feel free to invite family or friends to come too. For more information, you may contact me.

Once again, thanks for your continued support, please look for our announcement early next year for our 4th Annual Santa in September event. Also, I welcome any comments/suggestions on making this event better and/or more successful, please feel free e mail me with your likes and/or improvements to this event.

Sincerely,
