SNOWBIRD LOVE ONE ANOTHER LUNCHEON
When this event was first conceived, it was actually two separate events. A simple suggestion led to the combination of the two to make one large fellowship opportunity. This is a great event for both our Snowbirds arriving from colder climes and our Try Something New regulars. Snowbirds will be honored, recognized and have their photos made. |
