• We want to express a BIG THANK YOU to everyone that helped with the CAC January Invitational on Saturday. Our meet was 30% larger than it was last year and the success of our meets depends so much on our volunteers. We want to especially thank everyone that helped with the second session, especially those that ran our Clerk of Course. Also, a BIG thank you to those families (mom, dad, siblings, and aunts) that worked the meet on Saturday.
• The total funds raised for the Block Party Fund is $12,010.00. Congratulations and thank you to everyone that helped us reach our goal. CAC's share of the costs of the new blocks is $5,854.88. The use of the balance of the funds ($6,155.12) has not been determined, but a "wish list" of equipment is being compiled. Reminder: We are trying to collect all pledges by January 31.
• If anyone is interested in helping with the celebration (party) for the Block Party, contact Mike Rice. He would appreciate some assistance.
