I hope everyone is enjoying their November. A few important details to start us off. The WNL this week has been postponed, but we will let you know the details as soon as it is rescheduled.
On that note, we are dark until December. So, I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving. Sending peace and love to everyone's families and hope it is an abundant and traffic-free holiday! In case you haven't heard, stay off the freeways around downtown! The 10 is closed due to a fire.
HOVOOTM is in the house!
We do, however, have a HOVOOTM this weekend, and a holiday party to RSVP for, so check them out.
Rise Against Hunger
We have the time for the Rise Against Hunger HOVOOTM! The event coming up this Saturday.
It is at 9:00 - 1:00 at the Torrance YMCA.
Please let David Rowe know if you can participate, and if not for the whole time, what hours you can help out.
Holiday Party Time!
We will once again host our annual coveted ornament exchange, so please bring a wrapped ornament (value between $10-15) if you wish to participate.
There will be an ugly sweater contest (prizes will be awarded), music and a sing along!

Club Meeting Report
Last Friday, we had a wonderful presentation from the women at A New Way Of Life, a program that helps house and teach re-entry to women coming out of jail. Thanks to Jennifer Addington for hosting us at the library and to Les and Virginia for bringing delicious food!

Digital Drawing Tickets:
Last year, we completed most of the raffle tickets in a digital format where you simply had to complete the information for one ticket and the rest of the tickets that you purchased were auto-filled electronically. Due to the success and ease of this format, we will continue it this year. To make it even easier this year, we have created an upload link- return all tickets electronically and we will print your tickets and place them in the hopper for the drawing.
Upload your completed digital tickets: Fill out your digital tickets and return your tickets via the upload link.
