Congratulations to the two winners, Barbara Austin and Amy Foreman.  The support of the District was overwhelming, and helped us achieve and even exceed our goal of raising over $4000.00.  Additionally Lee District Clubs provided in-kind donations of over $11,000. 

An update on the District's really amazing contributions to President Carol’s gift. It was not too easy as Carol was reluctant to give us ideas. The conclusion was that Carol was probably ‘lighthoused out’ and she balked at the suggestion we buy a large one for her front yard. Her other love is St Joseph’s Villa, so we donated $300 in her name to the Villa. A lovely framed certificate of acknowledgement was presented to Carol at RAPC and she will have an acknowledgement certificate in the Boardroom.
As a personal gift, we chose a Pandora bracelet (we know she likes jewelry) with meaningful charms - a cute silver and red lighthouse, for her symbol; a lovely book charm to represent all the Dr Seuss books she urged us to donate; a heart charm as she has such a big heart and an angel charm as she has been an angel for SJV.
