the 80 we had last year, but surely we can at least equal it. Shawn can correct me if I am wrong about this, but our affiliate spends at least $8,000 a year in scholarships. This does not include what we spend on BELL. In other words, we are an active affiliate
and never have money lying around. That is as it should be. See you Saturday!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

I can work at the Greenbelt Nut Salt. Please let me know the times.<br>
<br>
When will we be able to order nuts and can we pick them up at the nut sale?<br>
<br>
I will also send my scholarship list within the next day or two. I have to decide what I want to bake.<br>
