font-family:Calibri'>First of all, I just have to say how wonderful it is to
work with a group as generous as you all. Thank you to everyone who
participated in the Operation Shake Your Groove Thing at last week’s
conference. I think the Citizens Caring for Children folks were a little
overwhelmed at how much we were able to contribute. You guys are setting
the bar really high for next year’s event!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

font-family:Calibri'>For those of you who may have missed it at Friday’s
meeting, the final tallies were <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>184</span></b>
<b><span style='font-weight:bold'>bags</span></b>, and almost each of those was
full of pajamas or sweats, and <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>$3185</span></b>
in monetary donations. Several of us were able to deliver the bags and
money on Friday afternoon and the lobby of the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName
w:st="on">Resource</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Center</st1:PlaceType></st1:place>

font-family:Calibri'>And since I neglected to actually mention how the teams performed
and I’ve had some requests, I thought I’d throw the results out
here. Officially Team Electric Boogaloo won, barely edging out Team Robot
for top spot. Team Bump had a late surge that put them ahead of Team
Hustle. Thank you to our team captains, Bruce Webber, Ron Hancock, Diane
Hogue, and Melissa Thornton. You guys were all such good sports about the
competition and your efforts are much appreciated—not to mention the fact
that you all looked incredibly cool on the dance floor.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
