Maurer Branch 8330 President A silver anniversary dinner was held by Branch 8330 on Oct. 16 at the Del Capri Cater in Hall. Twenty members, as well as their friends and some members of Branch 8340, were in attendance. Branch 8340 presented the ladies of our branch with a very generous gift in appreciation for our efforts to keep Branch 8330 alive and viable. The dinner was chaired by Helen Rogers, who did an outstanding job both with the dinner menu and the decorations. Each lady present received a very special favor which was greatly admired and appreciated. On Nov. 22, Branch 8330 held its annual Christmas Bazaar/Bake Sale, which featured a "nearly new” table. This affair is the only fundraiser that is held by our branch. It helps defray the expenses incurred in the various fraternal activities of the branch. Some of these activities include regular contributions to Rita’s Supper Table, which offers home cooked meals every Monday evening to the less fortunate. This service is staffed solely by volunteer workers who rely heavily on contributions of food and money to purchase food. Recently, Branch 8330 presented a complete set of updated World Book Encyclopedias to St. Rita’s School library. The gift was made in memory of our deceased beloved vice president, Katherine Fowler. The branch also gives tuition grants to students who attend St. Rita’s School and provides money for a Christmas project at the school. Branch 8340 Dundalk, MD The members of Branch 8340 Dundalk, Md., gathered Nov. 1 at St. Rita’s School cafeteria for their regular monthly business meeting. Much of the meeting’s discussions centered on the branch’s budget for the upcoming year. Members also discussed plans for the branch’s recent memorial Mass and Communion breakfast.
