Snacks, Keychains, and Emergency Preparedness - Oh My!

Twenty-seven sisters joined us at Julie's house in Wheaton at our October meeting.  We collected yummy snacks for Iota Chapter and made cute AOII keychains for their 54 new members!  We collected books and canned goods for our local P.A.D.S. shelter.  Fran's husband, Don, was our guest speaker.  He spoke about how we can be prepared for emergencies (due to weather, utility issues, etc.)  It was a very fun evening and way too crowded to take a group picture.  Here are some images from the evening....

stockpiling 5 days worth of food, water, and supplies in case of emergencies.
