Hello Brothers, Thanksgiving has come and gone and I am hoping your family and friends had a blessed and fulfilled day. The volunteers and donations collected for the food bank and the dinners that were delivered made it extra special for many families and a huge thank you for those who participated. Please do continue to donate to the food bank through the Christmas season as well as all year long. Every little bit makes a difference. With the Christmas holiday sea-son upon us, we have many activities coming up at the council. I will remind you of all the events that are forth coming, before I do so I would like to take this chance to extend my huge appreciation to some of the people that have been key to the
successes of the past few months. Big thanks to: Bob Wood for setting up and organizing the priest appreciation event and Me-morial Mass. Dave Nelson and all his vol-unteers for a great time and most successful Oyster roast. Terry Ward for making sure we have snacks after the meetings. Matt Hale for donating the turkeys for Thanksgiving baskets. To all the Bingo workers, volunteers, managers and the behind the scenes peo-ple who make it happen every week without fail. J.P. and his crew for keep-ing the Council lounge bar going. The breakfast crew for their continuous hard work and
