Everyone is asked to bring a food item to share at the raffle the board is asking that everyone bring a main dish. The board will bring deserts and salads

Don’t forget the Board bag! This is a collection of items donated by the members of the board. You never know what could be in there! If you win this item, be aware: you will be asked to open the bag right there so everyone can see what cool stuff you won. Could be a lamp, maybe toilet paper, or movie tickets...
