Westy Fundraiser
Be on the lookout for a Westy fundraiser night in September!

Thank you, Virginville Grange, for allowing the Junior/Youth to use the hall for our line dancing fundraisers. Thank you to everyone who supported and advertised our event. Next is set for November 22 – Tentative Times: Open hall at 6:30 for food sales – Dancing 7-10.

Thank you to everyone who came out for the R Phils ball game and supported our junior royalty as they threw out the first pitch. We are hoping to make this an annual event! We approximately received $100 back from ticket sales to support the junior/youth account.

The Junior Department and Youth Department are combining forces at this current time. We will hold youth team meetings in conjunction with the junior team meetings quarterly via Zoom. Please reach out to Gail if you are interested in joining. The next team meeting will be April 7 at 7pm.

Thank you to all of the attendees at the Reading Royals game! We earned $160 back to the account from our attendance.
