Join us at the October Monthly Meeting! We have read your suggestions through the member survey and have a few changes to the meeting this month, starting with the meeting beginning later in the afternoon — at 5:30pm.
The program this month is brought to us by our own Solange and Mike Mecham who will discuss the Camino de Santiago, a pilgrimage originating from various points in Europe, ending in Santiago de Compostela. These two made the pilgrimage this year and will explain the reasons for doing so and what they learned along the way.
As always, we’ll be socializing over baked goods from Sugar and Spice and Malbec for those interested in starting their happy hour right at the meeting!
We also have a new venue for the post-meeting Happy Hour! The lovely Hotel Pulitzer Sky Bar Terrace is the meeting place to continue the fun!
