BY DALE DOEPKER

Total all locations for 2022 = $5889

Refuse Center only = $4565

Lakeside Motorsports = $643

Hixson’s Counter Kettles = $681

We had twenty-five different Bell Ringers who attended the kettles for seventy-six total hours this year. Especially the three volunteers who took three shifts and five volunteers who took two shifts. The grand total was well below last year.

Thanks to all who helped ring this year, especially Tim Cook at the Refuse Center for all his help and taking the photo plus approval and help from the owner Bob Doerr. Also, thanks to Ed Richter at Lakeside Motorsports for allowing us to ring at his open house and his $500 donation to that kettle. Thanks to Gail Hixson for encouraging his counter kettles. Bell Ringers who did not make it to the group photo were Bob Bellomo, Joni Sandy, Tricia Donegan, Karen Schultz, Pete Aleksynas, Gloria Parker, Tim & Barb Collinge, Ken & Peg Grybel, Tim & Karen VanAntwerpen, Mike Sylvester, Holly Miller, Michelle Kauffold, Dan Lee, and Elaine McCollum. All the other volunteers are shown in the group photo.
