With Spring in the air, the Program Committee is busy planning for next year. We are always looking at new courses. If you have one in mind, please let us know.
Our Membership continues to grow. It's very gratifying to be told we have something for everyone.
Mine and the Executive Committee’s thanks go to Cheryl Turner for her time on the Committee. We will miss your input, Cheryl. All the best.
