Administration - Public relations, advertising, budget, logistics, and fundraisers
HELP THE NEWTONS
Tim Newton is leaving for the National Guard at the end of September. Think about how you can help Meagan through March. Can you take them a meal? Can you help in the yard? Can you help with childcare to give Meagan a break? Contact Elizabeth Patterson if you can help in any way. Sisters take care of sisters. Let’s take care of Meagan.
