Chow Fundraiser

Posted by Michael Starke on 09 Jan 2004 | Tagged as: Newsletter Items

Our Holiday Chow Swap Shop sale was a success. We raised $175 for Chow and donated a full bin of non-perishable food. Closets were cleaned out, shoppers found great bargains for $5 or less, and money was raised for Chow. We would like to thank all of you who donated old tennis clothes. I have seen many “new” tennis outfits at the club as a result of our sale. Old fashions become new fashions if you hold to to them long enough.

We hope to make this a yearly event. Special thanks to Debbie & Kris for taking on this project, putting in time and effort for a great cause. I am still looking to buy one of those polka dot-collared tennis shirts my wife made me throw out 15 years ago… There is always next year.
