We are back at the library this Friday. Please join us for a lovely lunch from Ranch Market, a visit from Harbor Interfaith Services, and an induction! It was amazing to see so many of you at Red Onion last week, so let's keep it going!!
We also have a District Breakfast coming up and the DG emailed me to see if we would be there. No pressure! Please let me know if you would be able to make it and I will make another announcement this Friday at the meeting. I will be going and this is a wonderful opportunity for new members to see what a district breakfast looks like.
