All past activities have been retained with an objective of adding a net of three members this year and attaining involvement of 80% of all members in at least one activity. The new fundraisers this year will be a "Christmas Cookie Walk" chaired by Linda Eastman and a "Master Golf Tournament Raffle". A new service activity has been added this year, an African Water Project More to come on 15AU17.
