History Did Not Repeat Itself, But That's Good News for You

Last week, we came close to repeating history - with a major Dunwoody Scholarship drawing on Friday the 13th! No one so lucky as this story from the club's fifth anniversary year ... January 20, 1989 ... "What are the odds that Someone named Friday would win thirteen dollars not once but two times on the same day in our Scholarship drawing on Friday the 13th? Al Friday did! Believe it or not!"

The good news ... about $1,000 in this week's Dennis Crean memorial scholarship drawing. Play to win!
