For those of you attending the November monthly meeting ,Geri Finley will be there and will be collecting your registration and funds if you will be attending the party. The party registation flier is available in the MOWOG, and attached.

We will be continuing our tradition of collecting donations for the Waterford Country School. I also want to thank you all for your generous support in the past. The school provides a safe environment for families in crisis, supplying them with counseling and housing so vital at a critical time in their lives. As a result of this process many children and young adults will be spending their holiday season at the school. Your donations help the make this situation more enjoyable for these residents.

The school has compiled a Wish List to help guide those wishing to donate. We have also received feedback from the school that gift cards for vendors such as Wal-Mart, Target, Amazon, Visa, Mastercard and local restaurants are their favorite as they can then use the cards themselves. The current Waterford Country School wish list above.

I will again be asking our members who are not able to attend the party, but still want to contribute to the donations for the school to send me gift cards which I will collect and deliver to them. I realize many of you are hesitant to send gift cards in this manner but in the past 4 years that we have done this, there have been no issues. I will send each of you an email confirming the receipt of any gift cards I receive.

This is the only time during the year that any member of the CTMG executive board will request gift cards be sent to them. Dec 15th is the target date for any mailed gift cards.

My mailing address is Al Nosenzo, 138 Skyline Dr, Southington, CT 06489. I can also be reached via email at alnosenzo@gmail.com . I want to again thank you all again for your generosity and look forward to seeing many of you at the holiday party. Safe Travel this holiday season and throughout the year.
