Our sixth anniversary of the Dillard’s Fashion Show and Luncheon was a huge success with the crowd reaching 355 people. We raised a lot of money that will be used to send well deserving fourth grade girls to camp. Thank you to all the people who came to the ballroom at Tuscany to eat, clap and dance a little! Thank you also to all the great people who donated items, gift cards and money to this worthy cause. We learned some things that will make next year even better.
We have initiated five new members to our TTT Chapter this year. These fabulous, hard working women are Ellen Stergulz, Becky Lopez, Georgie Wood, Judy Peterson and Lucille Thomas. This chapter is a busy, energetic group of women who like to get things accomplished. This new group will help us tremendously in our future endeavors.
Our next big push is to get the girls ready for camp by buying their equipment and clothing. In the next two months we will get all their paperwork in order, throw them a party with pizza and snacks to show them what is in their equipment bags and take them for a day of shopping for their wardrobe for camp which will include lots of laughs and lunch. After all of our preparations and lots of anticipation we will finally get them off to camp in June. Later in the summer before they return to school we will also have a reunion lunch at a local restaurant where we get to hear all of the girls’ camp stories.
