Toth-Maskarinec Branch 89 hopes everyone is staying warm and safe during the winter season. To this cause, our branch is accepting donations of blankets for the homeless who reside under the Hot Metal Bridge on the Southside of Pittsburgh. The Rev. Judith To­bias, member of the First Hungarian Reformed Church of Homestead, is spearheading this drive on behalf of the church and Branch 89. If you wish to donate, please contact either Rev. Tobias at 412-926-0322 or Branch Coordinator Lisa Toth-Mas­karinec at 412-872-5022. Or, you can drop off donations at the church. Branch 89 is also collecting codes from Coke products. The codes we collect will be turned into points which can then be redeemed for various merchandise and prizes to be used at our various outings. Golf Outing Coordinator and Branch Auditor Mark S. Maskarinec said the product/points breakdown is as fol­lows: Bottle cap = 3 points 12 pack = 10 points 24 pack = 18 points 30 pack = 25 points. These points add up fast for valu­able prizes, such as gift certificates, tote bags, etc. We distributed many such items at the golf outing last year. Anyone with any codes can email them to Mark at maskarinecl836@ comcast.net or mail them to 1836 Timothy Drive, West Mifflin, PA 15122. Every little bit helps. Mark the date Saturday, Aug. 17, for the Second Annual Branch 89 Golf Outing. In keeping with the spirit of fraternalism and giving back to the community, all proceeds from this outing will benefit the First Hungarian Reformed Church of Homestead. The event will again be held at the Westwood Golf Club and promises to be an enjoyable event. We look forward to welcom­ing many of our branch members as well as the Officers and Board of Directors of William Penn Associa­tion. Other upcoming events for our Branch include:- a Join Hands Day project for the beautification and cleanup of the grounds and the parsonage of the First Hungarian Reformed Church of Homestead;- Cosmic Bowling in March;- a Night at the Casino; and- a dinner at Dave & Buster's in Homestead. In addition to our own golf outing, we're eagerly anticipating WPA's Annual Golf Tournament & Scholarship Days to be held this year at Quicksilver. What a fun time it promises to be. For any of your life insurance needs, please continue to call Ruth Toth at 412-461-5812. Branch 89 continues to thank William Penn Association and its officers for their continued support and wishes everyone a healthy year to come.
