U for Unity,

As a result of our Dan Bell Memorial Citizenship Event held in October, our Chapter donated $27,500 in December to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation to help families and responders impacted by the 9/11 Twin Towers situation.

We then held our Chapter Christmas Party at Caffe Navona which was very well attended. We enjoyed meeting with each other and the excellent Italian food, music, and played games and held raffles. A really nice time was enjoyed by all.
