Annual Meeting and Dinner Delayed
Dear Members and Fellow Villagers,
As the number of Covid-19 infections continues to rise, The Gates Mills Improvement Society has decided to delay the annual meeting normally scheduled for early January to a later date. We will convene the annual in-person dinner meeting at The Chagrin Valley Hunt Club when Covid-19 cases decrease.
The GMIS distributed the Christmas Employee Fund on Friday, December 17th at The Community House. About 300 families contributed $64,700 to the fund, exceeding last year’s total of $57,000. We indeed are fortunate to have so many villagers generously supporting the fund. Thank you, everyone.
