anymore. Thank You Karen for all
your help. Terry Dumais will be

help. Jim Gregory, Clodo
Conception, Peter Fett, Ed Mack and Bob Chandler.
We need a phone tree-----anyone wishing to help with this, call Jean Masse.
The SACA wants to cancel the January meeting and the Board Of Directors and the newsletter. A motion was made and discussed and passed by all present.
Walbaum’s Food Mart can drive for the Open Pantry went well. We topped the figures for food and money from last year. The can drive went well at some schools and not so well at others. Glickman School collected the most. One child went above and beyond when collecting. That child and family will be invited to come to the SACA Holiday Social. A motion was made and passed.
Send thank you cards to WNEC College Criminal Justice for helping out at the Food Drive.
