like some district committee helpers to show up at around 5 pm to help set
up. She would also like for the committee members to bring desserts,

Talley has checked to make sure that location would be available for the
August meal and for the November 15 Annual Recognition Event.
Thanks to Steve and the church for letting us use their facilities.
