We will meet Monday, November 13th at 7:00PM in the cafeteria.
There will be a lot of information given about upcoming events and stock show entries.

Turkey Dinner
We are pleased to announce that over $59,000 was raised during our Turkey Dinner. Thank you, again, for all the hard work that was put into the weekend of a delicious meal and school spirit of working toward one common goal. The volunteer hours that were logged either on line or on a sign in sheet totaled 986.25. The Non-Profit Times estimates that a volunteer hour is worth $23.07 to a non-profit. This means that you gave the school a gift of time worth $22,752.79 through your help with Turkey Dinner!
A special thank you to the Turkey Dinner Co-Chairman, Barry Beyer and Audri Bowers. Also to CPTC President, Josie Sokoloff, for making this year's dinner so successful.

Tiffany Roeder is the chairman of this committee but we need a co-chair to help during the 3 week raffle. If you are interested in knowing more and helping, please contact Mignonne at
