reserved or paid for in advance to hold.
- After end of month, any

Spring Challenge -Winners
The
results are in from the 11 Spring Challenge entries. 1st place(left) went to Mae
Adkins, Rawson. 2nd
place(right) went to Sandy Lause,
Although we’ve been using
our new training area since last October, we’ve had to use its exterior entrance/exit.
In
March our contractor cut an archway in the wall connecting the two spaces. The whole room is now complete thanks to a
coat of paint on the ceiling and wall paper on one wall. Stop by and check it out!
