BRAGS
Laurie Tamura: just returned from a 30 day vacation trip. During that time she went to France, Ireland and Scotland and played a lot of golf along the way. She had a fantastic time! $100
Jerry Schmidt: traveled to the base of the Grand Tetons to do some serious Elk hunting. Unfortunately for him (and lucky for them) they were in short supply. Oh well, the scenery was great and he had a great time overall. $50
Kate Ferguson: and her husband Fergie celebrated their 41st wedding anniversary by traveling to Oregon for some much needed rest and relaxation. They also saw a tremendous amount of Elk (who knew they could run that far to get away from Jerry) $41
Betty Miller: recently returned from helping her daughter relocate to Santa Maria from Santa Rosa. She is glad that her daughter is safe and sound and she wanted to express her upmost gratitude to the many services that helped Northern California throughout the devastating fire catastrophe. $100 to the compassion fund
Kevin Walthers: was very proud of the recent AHC Foundation fundraiser that was held at the Santa Maria Airport. After all is said and done $130,000+ will have been raised for the organization. $100
