Today's Meeting

As you all know Tina is the terrific, Co-Chair along with President Mike of our Club Peach Festival Committee.  This week she provided a thorough update on our success this year at the Winona Peach Festival, our largest Club fundraiser.

Despite the poor weather on Sunday, we still managed to turn a profit of about $32,000 to give back to our community over the next year,

She thanked all committee members and Club members for their tireless dedication. Including all our volunteers, there was an approximate total of 1800 hours provided by all involved.

An opportunity was given to all members to provide “Aha” moments and feedback.

We are looking for a Club Member to shadow Martina for next year's Peach Festival in the Volunteer Coordinator role as she will be relinquishing this the following year.
