Get the required pattern, win a gift card to the Post. $10 for the first three rounds, $20 for the fourth round.
Food is served from 5-7 p.m. The Auxiliary is cooking on many of the Saturdays. Proceeds goes to support our charities. The woman in charge of the kitchen gets to select the charity of her choice. Volunteers always welcome to cook or assist in serving.
