We began our fund raising for our new pavilion at Lake Eaton in earnest with the Spring AAPOA newsletter and the response to date is truly wonderful. As of the end of May we have collected over $6,000 this year. Last year we received two large donations totaling $5000 and we had budgeted $1500 from our operating funds. That brings our total to date to $12,500. We are now beginning the process to get bids for the foundation, which we hope to have poured this summer.

If you wish to donate to the pavilion, you should have a form that came with your newsletter. There will also be forms at the July 5th General Membership Meeting and afternoon picnic.

Thanks to the people who have already donated. The pavilion will be a wonderful addition to the Acres.

Rosemary Barry, President AAPOA
