At the end of the year with all the things we collect (Toys For Tots, Clothing, St. Theresa's Soup Kitchen, Items for Haven House, Caring Hands Food Bank, Ocala Forest Families, Operation Backpack, etc.)

The money we give (Hospice, Honor Flight, All One Family, Lazarus Free Medical Clinic, Boggy Creek, Helping Hands, Veterans, etc.)

The hours we give (Cleaning the Lakes and Ponds, Habitat For Humanity)

Our Scholarship program.

I could take a whole page listing the people and organizations that we help !!
We give well over $90,000 a year to charitable organizations.

Please don't list us as a drinking club !!!!!
Very well said and very true.
