Terry Whitmeyer and Frank Pavgouzas both agreed to co-author the Candy Gram. 3. It was agreed to continue with 4 issues of the Candy Gram (Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter). 4. Jim Olean had discussed with several officers that due to a large surpluses of money building up in the treasury he thought we could reduce the dues. Having two types of dues for the club were discussed at the meeting and it was passed that we would have two types of dues. For those with computers that would agree to down load and print out the Candy Gram or have it e-mailed to them, dues would be reduced to $10.00. For those members who do not have a computer or wished to receive a hard copy, dues would be $20.00. Posted 07-27-2015

If you have upgraded to Windows 10, go to the apps store and down load EBAY.
When you open EBAY you will see 30 candy containers at a time displayed. Use the thumb wheel on your mouse to scroll through. This is much faster then looking at the containers one at a time or three or four in the old gallery view.
