We recently wrapped up the Holiday Parties for 2014.  A wonderful time was had by all and I really enjoyed seeing and talking with members in both states.  A special thanks to all of you that provided gifts and non-perishable foods for those members in need.  This was truly appreciated and I am proud to say that we recieved well over a few thousand gifts and food items.  Every year the Reps work hard to get the word out to members to come to the parties and, if able, to bring unwrapped gifts and food to donate.  It has become quite a competition to increase the donations (toys and food) for us to share as far and wide as possible with our less fortunate members and their families.  I'm proud to say that this year, the first place award for the most donations was Fairbanks, AK with 223 guests and 384 donations (1.72%) followed closely by Port Angeles, WA with 51 guests and 74 donations (1.45%).  Your generiosity is truly amazing and we look forward to seeing you all again next year!
