Subject: Corvettes Limited: Elks Christmas Tree Lane
Cheryl,
I would like to thank you and your members for doing a wonderful job decorating and sponsoring the "Corvette Tree" at the Christmas Tree Lane fundraiser. The time and effort you put into it really shows and I will enjoy all the gifts that were under the tree! I have attended the fundraiser for many years and this is my first time winning a tree. My mom (Toni Russell) is on the Elks Ladies Aux. and puts many hours into it and I know they appreciate your club and others who sponsor trees. Thank you again!
Wishing you a happy holiday,
Kenny Russell (KJ)
