Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving & Holiday Season

Dear Members,

Happy Georgia Retired Educator's Day on November 2nd! If you are celebrating this with friends or there is a mention at a church or organization, please snap a picture and send it to Sharon Larkin at sharonlarkin1826@gmail.com

Join us for our GCREA luncheon and fun Silent Auction on Friday, November 21st, 2025. This is our annual fundraising event to support GCREA Spring scholarships for students in high school, at GGC, and GCPS teachers pursuing degrees in education.

Please make and/or purchase a themed basket for the auction. Bring your basket to the Sugarloaf Country Club by 9:30 AM. This will give you time to check in, register your basket with a starting price for bid, and put it on display. Our meeting will begin at 10:00 AM. Bidding on the baskets starts at 9:45 AM and continue through lunch. Donations are accepted if you choose to just give to the Scholarship Fund.

We need 40 to 50 baskets for a successful fundraiser. Baskets can be either a straw or plastic basket. The pictures below are some examples of great themed baskets.
