SNACK SHACK NCHI Members: What wonderful donations for the raffle during the meetings.... Again "What a success!" We would like to continue the raffles at all of the meetings as the money has been going to the ag fund for the kids. We made an impressive $500 to add to the Ag fund this year. We were able to give all the kids that wrote letters to us an added $60 each. After we have paid out the scholarship money this year, we will start over and build up the Ag fund for next year. NCHI in continuing to have a fun and exciting raffle during the meetings... Remember-- The donation can be some horsey homemade thing like jewelry, signs, horse painting, or baked goods to raffle during the club General Meeting.
