Last week’s speaker was quite interesting and scary at the same time. Mr. DiAngelo shared with us the issues young adults and parents are facing today when it comes to drugs. It’s 100 times worse and more dangerous than when a lot of us were teenagers.
Hard to believe it will be April already this week. Enjoy the Spring weather!
I’m looking forward to the dual District Conference this weekend in Hershey and learning what other Clubs in Eastern and Central Pa. are doing.
At our Board meeting last week, we voted on raising our breakfast fee to $20.00 starting April 10th . Costs of operation continue to rise, and your Board has held off as long as we could on this. We have looked at other
Clubs and venues and realized that all of them are $20.00+ for their meetings.
See ya Thursday!
The Prez.
Happy April Birthday!
