Money Is Due For Super Saturday!

Money is due for your Super Saturday orders. Please make your check out to the Highland 7th Ward. We need to put in final orders this week so we can start picking up the items needed for the crafts. You can drop off your check to either Shirley or Kari.

Also, I've added additional information below on the aprons and the first aid kits. If you are planning on making an APRON, please call Ashley Baker and let her know. She needs to have an idea of how many aprons you are planning on making and if you will have a sewing machine you're bringing with you.

We also have sign-ups going around for the salad bar. If you haven't signed up for anything yet and can bring something, please let Kari know. The sheet will be going around again on Sunday, October 10th. Thanks again for all of your participation! We are excited to have a day together with our Relief Society!
