St. Mark’s Men’s Group

We donated $50 each for two delegates to the Youth Forum, one from St. Mark’s congregation, the other representing the Youth Group.

Our usual meeting date in June fell on the St. Mark’s Anniversary Sunday, so the meeting was postponed until the following Sunday. In October, our usual meeting date fell on the St. David’s Anniversary Sunday, so again the meeting was postponed until the following Sunday.

The Men’s Group purchased the shed for the new ride-on mower, at a cost of $817.51. The shed has been erected in the back yard of the manse, giving easy access to both lawns. Those members who volunteered to mow with the new mower report that it performed well in the task.

We were still in a position to make our annual $500 donation to the General Fund this year, so we did so in September.

We will probably do our usual fundraiser, possibly a buffet supper, on February 6 most likely. We will be able to discuss this at our November and December meetings.
