RMC List - Christmas Toys For Tots Collections

[Rick Beets]

HI Gail, Rob, and RMC members,

I was thinking about toys for tots and how RMC could make a donation.  I
know PPCC has decided to make a cash donation this year.

I will put it on the meeting agenda and update you with our decision.

Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

Best,

Rick
