Dear ANCD members:
Greetings and Happy Unofficial End of Summer, 2017! I just can’t believe the Labor Day Holiday has already come and gone. It seems just like yesterday when we were celebrating the new year 2017. But this is just a reminder to us that time does not wait for anybody. ANCD should not be an exception. As we say in our native language, it is better to search for the black goat when the sun is shining. That is the only way that ANCD can stay ahead in the planning game. Judging from the current activities of the October Event or Annual Event Committee.
The main purpose of this message is to appeal to members for cooperation in selling event and raffle tickets. It is very important for us to sell at least 10 event tickets and 25 raffle tickets per person. The event tickets help to raise much-needed funds for ANCD—our main source of income. The raffle tickets help us to meet the requirements of the annual scholarships awards. Needless to say that we can do it. It has been said, indeed: When there is a will , there is a way!
In just a few days our monthly meeting will be held at the residence of the Omorogbes. At that meeting we will spend a little time completing any uncompleted aspect of the event planning. Please come prepared to report on your guest lists, ticket sales, the dance practices, the fashion show preparations, and all other items, including food preparation and choices. If you have not yet submitted your ad to the booklet editor, please do so now. The committee members will be available at the meeting to direct you on where to send your ads. Thank you for your cooperation, again. See you on Sunday!
