New Neighbors

September 12 & 13:  Apple Dumpling Booth at the Germantown Festival

          - Members helped run this booth during the festival, selling cold drinks.

October-December:  No Show River Boat Cruise

          - Members chose charities to donate money to instead of holding a fund-raising event.

April 21:  Silent Auction Event

         - Members will have the opportunity to bid on generously donated items from the activity groups and members.

Attention all Creative and Talented New Neighbors –  Would you be willing to donate one of your hand-crafted items for the Silent Auction?  We are looking for your creations (drawings, paintings, jewelry, stitchery, etc.) to be a featured part of our New Neighbors fund-raiser for our selected charities!
