Updates:
Many of our programs were in response to feedback from our members - we appreciate this and encourage your suggestions throughout the year. We also will continue to have a Display table, with displays coordinating (if possible) with our program. Please contact Elaine Evans if you are interested in having a Display table.
We will continue to have the News Table available this year. This is the place where you can display literature, fliers and other important information you would like to share with our membership.
