SPECIAL COMMUNITY SERVICE COMPETITION "DUEL BOOK DRIVE"

Teams which bring in the most acceptable books BY WEIGHT will win a
trophy and $100. If you are interested in having your local school or meeting
location be a book drop for this event, please let me know. "Success Can't Wait" organizers may be able to assist in getting the word out. Attending teams, expect a communication specifically about the book drive in your e-mail soon.

Get ready to "DO THE DUEL!"
