             This is awesome guys and gals! This certainly would not have been possibly without all of              you dedicated members who got packets, collected donations, and turned them in!              Everyone really and truly deserves a pat on the back; Joyce, the volunteer coordinator, even              told me that we were definitely among the groups that raised the most money if not the              group that raised the most! Thank you all again for taking the time to be a part of CROP, it              really paid off!
