Socializing with our many old friends and establishing friendships with our newest members and their significant others.

This is a wonderful evening full of incredible food, drinks and camaraderie. Bring your spouse or significant other or just a friend. In addition to the awards we will have free door prizes!

The program will be VERY brief and the President promises to keep the event focus on socializing and having fun. No windy speeches blah, blah , blah.
