Scholarships:

Donnie has received some scholarship applications- we plan to meet some night in May at Donnies as we have in the past. The date will be picked at the May meeting. We plan on getting a lasagna from Costco’s to try for dinner since we are considering that as an option for the Harley Raffle.
