We are looking for new and exciting ideas in order to reach more people in more places. If you have some ideas, come, join the Commission and help bring a little joy into the lives of those who have no joy. We meet the first Tuesday of the month at 6:30 PM. The meetings are usually one hour. If you are interested, please call me at the office. If I’m not available, please leave a message and I will get back to you, or you may e-mail me at
Look forward to hearing from you.
Peace,
