- Comments Off on Toy Drive Recap
By Reid Smith
Thanks to all of you who contributed toys at our December 8th Brunch. As you remember, we advertised the toy drive as donations to Toys for Tots. Our guest for the brunch was to be a representative from Toys for Tots, but he did not attend.
Marnie Cameron found a deserving local charity in need: “Unfortunately, after trying to contact the Toys for Tots representative, I never received a returned call. So, I reached out to the Clark County Foster Kids program who are currently running a Toy drive. They happily accepted all the toys collected and they will go to kids currently in the county foster program – about 3,700”.
We think we have found a good charity for next December!

THANK’S FOR A WONDERFUL THREE YEARS!
As I pack my bags and head off into the presidential sunset, I want to thank everyone for helping our club grow to what it is today. Two milestones that were very rewarding were our 50th Anniversary celebrations and our club membership passing the 1000 mark! My new (and old) friendships will last forever and I am looking forward to participating in many of our outstanding activities in the coming years.
Gary Lea, our new President, along with an incredible Board will continue our progress. Let’s all give them our support and everything they need to move our club forward!
Thanks for the flowers and cake at the December Brunch!

RECAP
Our November Mix & Mingle took place at Sammy’s Restaurant and Bar in Henderson. These get-togethers are always fun and offer an excellent chance to get to know other members of the club. We will take a break from our Mix & Mingle activities in December and January, but will resume in February.

RECAP
By Reid Smith
The first Saturday in November marked an incredible Porsche gathering in St. George, Utah. Many LVR members attended this three-state event that featured over 100 Porsches! The Southern Utah members of the Intermountain Region brought us together to raise funds for Intermountain Cancer Center of St. George. We were treated to a tasty German themed brunch prepared by the hospital staff.
A big thank you to those who made this a fantastic event!
