reason to have a party or just
get together and also sup-
ports the Homeowners Asso-
ciation Social efforts."
Our fall activities will be kick-
ing off with an Ice Cream
Social on August 22nd.
Watch for more details about
this fun event. Bunko groups
will be starting up in Septem-
ber. A neighborhood adult
party is being planned. If you
have any ideas for things you
would like the club to do,
please don't hesitate to con-
tact Dora or me.
Enjoy these last days of
summer !
Etta & Dora
We are now in the dog
days of summer, a time
that is usually the hottest
of the year. What a change
this year! I've lived in Char-
lotte for 19 years and I don't ever
remember a summer like this
one. My grass is still green in-
stead of crunchy brown (if you
don't count the fungus spots); I
haven't had to water my garden in
several weeks; many days I have-
n't even had to water my hanging
pots; my pool temperature never
made it to 90. Very unusual!!
It won't be long until school is
starting up. Uniforms and school
supplies are featured in all the
ads. My youngest child is 39 but I
still have the urge to buy mark-
ers, crayons, glue sticks and
notebook paper at this time of
the year.
Another thing starting up is our
Hunters Gate Women's Club
activities. As a member of the
HGWC you might be asked
"What is the Women's Club?". A
former, very wise President of
our club once answered this
question by saying "It is working
stay at home moms, working
women, married women, single
women, sisters and friends. It is
a support group, a group that
cares about those less fortu-
nate and participates in charity
events. The Women’s Club is a
group that always looks for a
Letter from the Co-Presidents:
HAPPY BIRTHDAYS!!!

Hi all and THANK YOU!
Classroom Central https://www.classroomcentral.org is a nonprofit organization that collects school supplies
and distributes them to students living in poverty through our Teacher Free Store. Last year, Classroom Central
distributed over $5.4 million in free school supplies to schools in 6 districts (Mecklenburg, Gaston, Union, Ire-
dell, City of Kannapolis (N.C) and Lancaster county (S.C).
Over 98% of the supplies we distribute are donated. We receive no state, federal, school system or United Way
funding... which is why every donated item is so important. Every pencil, composition book, eraser, makes a
difference to a child living in poverty.
With that said, each year, I host a friends and neighbors supply drive to help stock the shelves of the Teacher
Free Store at Classroom Central. Last year we collected over 1,200 items! I hope to collect 1,500 items this
year and we have started off well – we have 518 items so far!!! That means over 500 sets of little hands will
receive paper or pencils or a ruler from YOU to help them succeed in the classroom!
I need YOUR help to reach the 1,500 item goal...(This is also a great community service project for your students
needing community service hours J ). To help you get the
most value for your shopping dollar, I will send you sale
flyer information on Sundays during this drive:
DATES of SUPPLY DRIVE: Sunday 7/21- Wednesday 8/7
MOST NEEDED ITEMS (Feel free to buy anything), but
here are some of the items that we never have enough of:
Pencils, Packs of erasers, Rulers, Composition Books, Fill-
er / Loose leaf paper
WHERE to DELIVER:
If you would like to participate, please feel free to drop donations of new school supplies to our house: 6909
Royce Ct. I’ll be glad to take them in to Classroom Central. I have a plastic tub with a lid outside of the house
in the event we are not home. Please put your donation in a plastic bag (just in case rain makes its way inside
the tub). Note: Don’t be alarmed, Mr. Jenkins will probably bark when you drop by
DONATION RECEIPTS:
Classroom Central is a 501c3 charity and your gifts are tax deductible (and greatly appreciated). If you would
like a receipt, just leave your full name, address and email address on a slip of paper in your bag. I will make
sure you receive a donation receipt via mail.
From the 9,000 educators who shop in our store, the 135,000 students that benefit from our program and our
(small but mighty) staff of 11, thanks so much!
