Giving Thanks

Our chapter held its 1st Annual Apprentice Appreciation Nights on November 6th & 7th with a great reception fro our students. Due to a rousing response from our very generous members we were able to raffle off an abundance of wonderful gifts, tools, gift cards and even a four-pack of tickets to a Tampa Bay Lightning Game. Pizza and sodas were offered prior to classes. And, again, our students were quite grateful. It is our plan to schedule the same event for our 2008-2009 class.

In addition, we would like to take this opportunity to thank all the charitable members, vendors and suppliers who donated. Every T-shirt, gift card and tape measure was met with sincere gratitude.
