High inflation rates, price increases, and limited supplies could induce some additional stress this holiday shopping season. This creates an environment which makes us prime targets for dishonest dealers who know shoppers are on the hunt for the right gift at a good bargain.

The Avinger 1936 Study Club is already active and busy this 2023/24 year. The President’s Luncheon was held at the beautiful restaurant, 1852, in Jefferson. Members and guests enjoyed the atmosphere and scrumptious meal. The October meeting was held at Nancy Gordon’s Fish Camp, which is always a fall retreat for our club. We were educated and entertained by Cass County Judge, Travis Ransom. Judge Ransom made us all feel comfortable asking questions while he answered with knowledge and humor. Our November meeting is a community outreach program with the Pleasant Hill Quilters as they present the History of the Underground Railroad. We are hosting the Pandora Club of Daingerfield and have invited others to join us for this interesting program.
