cost to ODC members. An additional $10.00
was raised.
Kay has volunteered to head up this project next year.
Motorcycle Ride – Thanks to Larry, Bill and Chuck for
heading up this fundraiser. It was a
great ride. They rode for about 70 miles
with a stop for ice cream. Total made
$85.00. This amount will be split 50/50
to VA Good Sam’s and the Wounded Warrior Project. Steve’s ice cream will have a picture of the
riders on their facebook page.
