The summer days are winding down and we are enjoying every last bit! It was fun seeing our members that were able to make it to last month's Music Under the Stars event - a delightful evening of music that we co-sponsored with the Village!

We look forward to our Chili Cook-Off next month - save the date for September 19th! More details to come very soon, including sponsorships. If you would like to volunteer, please reach out to Sheri Sauer - sssauers@yahoo.com

HAPPY AUGUST!
