We started the meeting discussing what we have coming up. The gifts for the Triple G are coming in. Allyson is going to go over the ones that have just come in and will let us know next week what is missing. This Friday is the Fall Festival. We passed around the sign up sheet for our booth. If you haven’t signed up, please do. We not only need the help, but could use a great turn out! Remember to wear your blue work shirt! Please remember to get your service hours to Holly.

Our speaker today was Nancy Lambert with Kindred Spirits Therapy Minis. She brought in Picasso to help show us what they do. She pointed out how her minis have helped people with Alzheimer’s have a lucid moment, veterans with PTSD have lifted spirits, and help enhance motor skills for every age. They currently have 27 facilities that they coordinate with regularly. They are fully self-funded, but are in current need of a new vehicle. The trailer that they have is too large. They are in need of a cargo van, as opposed to their trailer. If any of our members, or businesses that they know, would like to donate please contact Nancy at (850) 830-4199. Their information is below.
