Salvation Army Bell Ringing
The club spent the day ringing the Salvation Army bell at Woodman’s the day after Thanksgiving. Thanks to all that participated we collected a total of $552 dollars for the day. Maybe be a record for the club!

Mint News
The US Mint is releasing the 2023 American Women Quarters in the Spring of 2023. I
was able to find a Anna May Wong in my change the other day. She is the last AWQ
for 2022. The 2023 AWQ are Bessie Coleman, Jovita Idar, Edith Kanakaʻole, Eleanor
Roosevelt and Maria Tallchief.

Membership Dues will be collected in January. Payments can be made at the
meeting or Checks can be mailed to Chuck.

Thanks to all who have already contributed to the Chet Krause Memorial. We will
accept additional donations at the January meeting. The total received will be
