PLEASE BE ESPECIALLY GENEROUS! And of course, there will be another exciting 50/50 drawing! Upcoming Meet and Greets--
A letter to our group from the Executive Director of Lake Cares: The reason I'm writing today is to thank The Traingle Connection for supporting our cause. I know that your membership has been donating canned goods on a monthly basis for a while now, and you deserve to be recognized for that. Please pass on my appreciation to all the fine people in your organization. Let them know that the recipients of their generosity are really thankful for what your members are doing. Lake Cares is fortunate to be staffed by more than 140 dedicated volunteers. And, because of actions taken by groups such as yours, we were able to provide much needed food in 2013 to 19,205 children and adults in 6,077 families. With your continued support, there's no doubt we will exceed those numbers this year. I urge you to keep up the spirit of giving. Needy people in Lake County depend on the goodness of kind-hearted individuals such as the folks in The Triangle Connection. You are making a difference. Once again, thank you very much for what you've accomplished thus far and for all your future efforts. Sincerely, Irene O'Malley Executive Director A message from Charly: Tuesday night (June 10), the fifty of us who were able to swim through the rainstorm were rewarded by a truly fun evening at Angel's Soul Food and Barbecue. The food was really good, the service was fast and friendly. The kitchen was able to keep up with us and the drinks weren't watered down (you know who I mean!). We were told by a number of people to book the venue again, so we've got a return engagement for Tuesday, September 16! I must tell you that I will be visiting Angel's before September! As the menu said, the fried chicken is good enough to make you want to "slap your mama!"
