Helping the Laura Foundation - Pond Hockey

On January 26 and 27, members of our Club assisted the Laura Foundation for Autism and Epilepsy by working at the food tent during the Pond Hockey Tournament in Madison at the King Pine Ski Area.  The weather was cold but sunny and was a sold-out event with many happy but hungry children buying burgers, hot-dogs and soup.  On Sunday the worker bees were: Cathy B., Cathy S., Cindy H., Pat K., Pat M., Nancy S., Kathy S. and Katie.  If any of the Saturday workers took a photo to share, let me know so I can post it too.

Donation to the Humane Society

On December 20th, Altrusa of Carroll County presented the Conway Area Humane Society with our donations of $200, bags of pet food, dog treats, toys and more.  Nancy Spaulding and Kathy Somerville made the presentation to Katy Bailey,  volunteer manager at the Humane Society.  A bonus - Nancy found a dog to adopt!

Club Christmas Party

We all enjoyed our annual Christmas celebration at Lorraine's lovely home with lots of good food, too much dessert and much laughter.  Instead of a Yankee Swap, we each brought donations for Starting Point and the Conway Humane Society.  It is more fun to give than to receive!
