Lunch 11am-2pm
RCSM will be attending this event as a group social. We will meet at the church (5312 West Mountain Street in Stone Mountain Village) at 11:30 a.m. and dine together as a group. We will then depart from there to tour the houses; we will coordinate car pools to the various houses for ease. We will end the tour at the Train Depot since it is close to where most of us have parked.
Many of the Stone Mountain Village shops will be open that day from 10:00 to 2:00, so feel free to come early to take advantage of specials for holiday shoppers.
Tickets are $25.00 per person and include lunch. We are collecting money from members who wish to attend and then paying a group fee to the Women's Club. Please make your checks to Rotary Club of Stone Mountain, or if you want to pay with credit card, please email Margie Kersey
