No, not at this time. All members, if you know of a families from Northern and Southern California. Please let me know as soon as possible.


Tiffany last year we picked families from the Bell Academy.

>> The Double Good Popcorn fundraiser will be 4 days. We can create one link for us all to use.

>> If there are no other suggestions or agreements to these alternatives, we can vote to donate from our treasury $250 per family to sponsor a child from Northern and Southern California for Christmas. 
>> Our time is very limited to donate to two families from Northern and Southern California by December 15th, so we need to make a decision immediately.
>>  
>> We can do other fundraisers later to generate funds to help send members to the 2026 State and National Conventions.
