President Mary gave a short report on the Veterans Day Program. The Auxiliary rang the Salvation Army bell at Theisen’s on Nov. 29. The Auxiliary has collected 106 pairs of socks to be given away to local veterans. Mary has purchased the gift cards for the Thanksgiving baskets. A motion was made to pay the bills from the County and the Fourth District meetings. The Christmas Party will be held in January.

The Juniors are making sacks for the socks to be given away.

They are also sending Christmas cards to be sent to Veterans at Marshalltown. The Juniors are having a tree at the Festival of Trees at Otto’s Oasis this year.

The meeting was adjourned after the Coin March and the Prayer for Peace.
