Registration and meal service will begin at 4:30 p.m., with the business meeting beginning at 6:00 p.m. The menu will be robust and includes fried chicken, a roast beef carving station, white vegetarian lasagna, mac ‘n’ cheese, green beans, a variety of rolls, side salad, and apple pie and lemon cake for dessert.
All the same amenities will be available to our members during the annual meeting:
