Subject: General Store

We shaggers must agree with Cathy and Wes.  The General Store Café has supported our group and our fund raising in every way possible.  Plus, we have had fun doing it.  Jorgie is the best!  She and Vance have offered to back Chatham Area Shag Association and it’s fund raising for Chatham Charities by helping with expenses with special “shaggin” events featuring
our favorite beach bands.

Greetings

NHS Athletic Boosters has had a very successful year. NHSB with the help from parents, coaches, athletes and the business community has been able to raise over $33,000.00 for the NHS athletic program. The athletic program has improved tremendously in the last few years due to all the hard work and dedication of our NHS boosters elected officials, committee members, general members and volunteers. There are many more things Boosters would like to do. That is why I am writing today…..WE NEED HELP.

Subject: Backyard Edibles

I would like to recommend Keith Denny and his Backyard Edibles.

We contacted him about putting in blueberry bushes.He has already been here, dug the soil samples and is sending them
to Raleigh.
I just couldn’t take on that “one more thing” as the spring season is
starting.
This way, it will finally get done.
