President’s Corner 7.23.18
Good morning,
I hope everyone had a great weekend! I’m looking forward to seeing you all Thursdayfor our Second Membership Meeting of July. Our speaker will be Julia Kalinski, Director of Resource Development at Daniel Kids. She will be updating us on the visitation center at Daniel Kids, which was the beneficiary of our 2017 Black Tie Blue Jeans Gala. Julia will also be giving us information on our September service event that will be with Daniel Kids. Dinner will follow the meeting at The Bearded Pig.
Remember that guests are always welcome at our meetings, socials, and service events.
Cheers,
Jordan Hollis
