a great time!  A time of fun and a
time of giving.  There are about 7

off McArthur across from Orange
County Airport.  For directions, contact Joe and Cindy.

Marietta – Thanks the club for His
House donation, they will be very overwhelmed.  Ann stated that you can call up His House
website and CSS is mentioned.  Marietta spoke of her
background of herself.  7 years ago
she started with the charities with CSS,   Marietta looks for smaller organizations for
CSS to help, opposed to the larger charity organizations.  Marietta
confirmed that CSS is a Non-Profit Organization, not a Charity
Organization.  Marietta also motioned that we send an
invitation to Donnell and a guest for our Banquet – Donna’s
seconded  the motion.  Marietta
needs everyone’s shirt size.
Polo Shirt size.

again – only show if you want to have some fun!!!

December 9th
– “Christmas With The Marines” at Camp Pendleton.  These Marines have just finished Boot
Camp and will soon be shipped out overseas.  We have been spreading the word.  Be a friend to all – let them

you can, wear a Santa hat!!  Art
Huhta is looking for a place to stop and have dinner when the event is
over.  No lunch will be served.  CSS will meet at Krispy Krème’s
at the Block of Orange at 11:30.

they can call home while overseas.
Toys for the kids are a different event.  Donations for the adult Marines are
always welcome.  WE HOPE for a great
Turn Out.  YOU WILL NEED YOUR CAR REGISTRATION,

them!
