The 150 Club is a fundraising program that benefits the savings efforts of our parish.  We have two clubs each year, running for twenty weeks.  When we have a full "club,"  150 members,   the program earns  $ 3,750 for the parish,  while giving the same amount out to the "members"  in weekly prizes.  Most Sundays provide a $ 50 winner;  the first Sunday of each month provides $100;  certain holy days and holidays have prizes of $ 50 or $ 100.  At the end of each "club," there are Grand Prizes of $ 100 and $ 250.  So far, the "club"  has run  25 sessions and we are entring our  twenty-sixth.  Over the thirteen years of its existence,  the proceeds from the "club" have allowed the parish to afford many upgrades and have seen us through lean times.  Each "member" can win twice within any 20-week "club."
