Thank You to all Club Members from the
Fundraising Committees:
2023 was a great year for all of our fundraising efforts:
Friendship Card
John Denver Tribute Concert
Estes Recycle Day/Shredathon
Christmas Scholarship Dinner
Elkfest, and
these on top of our major effort—the Duck Race!
A “huge thank you” to all Club members whose support---time, talents, and treasures—made all of this possible.
As a result, we head into 2024 with funds available for our outreach efforts, from EVICS to Scholarships!
Thank you, Phil and Tara Moenning
