February 2020 Presidents' Message

Happy Valentine’s Day!  February is going to be a busy month - good thing we have an extra day to get it all done.

We have Reading Is Fundamental distributions in late February and early March.

We will also be discussing and voting on the issue of whether to continue the Book Sale next year.  You will be getting information on the pros and cons.  You will be able to vote at the February meeting or by email to Laurie and Carrie.  

We also need to name a nominating committee for the officers for next year.  Let us know if you want to volunteer for the committee or for an office.  

Hope to see you all at the February meeting.
Carrie Smith and Laurie Shaw
Co-Presidents

Cherished  Children Golf
Tournament March 13


 Cherished Children Golf Tournament is early this year - March 13 - what we hope will be a "Lucky Friday the 13th" for Cherished Children.  Mark you calendars and plan to help out that day - it is fun and a great help for this event.  Also, help us spread the word to golfers and others who might be willing to be sponsors.  Brochures will be available at the January and February meetings.

Support Daybreak by
Sponsoring Marlene


If anyone else would like to help me by sponsoring me in the Daybreak Sleepout, below is the direct link which takes you to my page. I appreciate all donations.  No donation is too small. (Thank you to those who have already helped. )  Please make sure if you use the link that you check the box that says one-time donation.  As much as Daybreak and I would love your support, I don't think any of you plan to make monthly donations! I f you want to pay by cash or check, you can do that too.  Checks need to be made out to Depaul USA and in the memo line write Daybreak Sleepout/Marlene Humphry.  You can give it to me at the next meeting. Thank you all.  Marlene
