[Tall-Corn] Extension of Challenge.

[Mary McGee]

Hello, All!  

              I'll post this because I know of a few people at large who
might be interested and to invite everyone to the Des Moines Chapter
Christmas Party December 9th, 2023.  Our Give-It-Up/Do-It Challenge has been
extended till the Christmas party so that we can gather as much money for
the BELL Academy as possible to turn over to the  Affiliate.  Anyone can
join now-it's never too late!  It works like this:  You give up something on
which you usually spend money and the money you save thereby you donated to
the Des Moines Chapter.  Or, you can pay to do something you don't want to
do but is good for you, e.g. walk a set distance.  Then the money you've
pledged and saved you donate to us for BELL.  I'll be collecting the
proceeds at the Christmas party, but all are welcome and, if you'll have
money, let me know and we'll work out some way you can get it to me.  My
personal email address is mmcatitude at gmail.com <mailto:mmcatitude at gmail.com>
.  When I have a time, I'll let you know; but I know the menu will include
fried chicken and cherry cheesecake, among other things, and that's good
enough for me.  Keep watch for the time!  

              Also, any of you in At-Large who wish to participate in our
Theresa's Gaming Salon Fundraiser are welcome to come too!  It's doubling as
a Meet The  Blind Month Active because we'll distribute literature and play
games like bingo, skip bo, hearts, racko, uno, and scrabble.  We'll have hot
cider courtesy of Cindy, and munchies.  $20.00 per person for unlimited
play.  And prize drawing!  

              The gaming will commence at 1:00 p.m. at Windsor Presbyterian
Church Ward Hall, 6301 University Ave., Windsor Heights, and end at 5:00
p.m.  Come and play!  

Sincerely,

Mary L. McGee

Des Moines Chapter Fundraising Chair
