Happy Holidays from your PREA officers!

Secretary Leah Smith, Treasurer Paulette Rakestraw, and Co-Presidents Beth Black and Patti Swift at the beautiful Hardy Lake House

Christy reminds us of the reason for the season.

PREA members at this meeting donated over $400 to Paulding Helping Hands, as well as 55 pounds of food.  We also collected a basket full of gift cards for students at Dallas Elementary School.

Santa is everywhere...he is magical...

Laura wonders who has more packages...

Pat thinks if she gives him a kiss there might be extras in her stocking:-)

Good friends + Good food =
Good times!
