Afton Lorenz joined to talk about Giving Day. We already have 2 matching partners, one for $5,000 and another for $2,500.
She also gave an update about the paver project, and more information about the engraving process. Better to send pavers in batches to get engraved, so it is more cost effective. She also discussed marketing strategy for the paver project.
