A lottery ticket with 5 games was purchased for the Brown Bag Auction on Saturday night. The ticket raised over $200 in donations to the Bluebonnets!   However, I know that everyone will be surprised and disappointed that of the five tickets, we didn’t win squat. One set had one number and another had another number with no powerball. 21 people contributed to the pool and though there were no winners, a good time was had by all! Oh well, better luck next year.

Well folks, it looks like we’ve pinned down our Brown Bag Auctioneer. Just got word that they will be in San Antonio on Friday, February 15th for an appointment on Satuday, the 16th. Its been quite a long time since they’ve been here and we’re really looking forward to seeing them again. So come on out Saturday evening, February 16th for the Annual Potato Bake at 5:00 pm, followed by the Brown Bag Auction. It’s guaranteed to be a fun evening.

Oh, by the way…there are plenty of empty brown bags available in the Clubhouse, so take one, put something in it that YOU would like to get if you bid on it and won. It should have a value of at least $10. Then seal it up so folks can’t peek, put a little hint on the outside of the bag as to what might be in there and bring it to the Clubhouse the night of the Auction. Remember….this is strictly a FUND RAISING event, so lets make it a successful one.

I would like to submit a Thank You note to all the LSC members who helped with the setup and teardown for the Fiddlers Association; also, a big thank you to those who helped in the kitchen. We hope everyone who attended the performances enjoyed the music as much as those who performed for you. The Clubhouse is a great place for music. Hope to see you all again in November, December and January.
