Dear Friends,

What a wonderful Easter celebration! It was a blessing to enjoy the beautiful flowers adorned throughout our Block, the lovely services, time with many of you, and seeing your families celebrate with us this past Sunday. I hope the day was as revitalizing for you as it was for me, and that you are able to carry that momentum into this new month.

Our group is ever growing and ever changing, and I want to ensure that I am delivering a program schedule that each of you is interested in. I want to know what you all are interested in seeing added to our calendar, what you like and dislike about what we currently do, and any other comments regarding the group. Please provide your input by clicking here! The survey is completely anonymous and should take no more than 5 minutes to complete.

Well wishes,
