Hello Everyone,
Our speaker tomorrow is Ann Willow Author and Free Lance Writer. MMIP-Missing and Murdered Indigenous People. Ann has done a lot of research on this topic and has many interesting stories to share. She was awarded the 2018/19 Anne Hillerman Award for non-fiction articles.
Tomorrow is also National Thrift Shop Day!
Thank you to our speaker last week, Debbie Joslin, Executive Director, with Hope Children’s Foundation. We learned a lot about the impact Hope Children’s has on families that need help while caring for a sick child and how they support those in need in the community. The fundraiser at the Civic Center they are hosting with the Bar D Ranglers sounds like a blast! Sponsor soon, before it is sold out. We also learned about her and Randy’s trips and causes they help with in Africa.
Thank you to our guest last week for joining us, Bill, who is Chris Troyer’s brother.
