A few people asked me offline if other clubs and/or people could make and
donate and ornament for the tree...well yes, if anyone or club would like to
create an ornament to be auctioned off with the tree, that would be great.

Also if any club would like to send their ambassador cars to be displayed on
the layout for the week, we'd be willing to do that also.
