SUMMER VACAY

Each year, we take off a couple of months to re-charge our personal engines, see family, train our dogs and go to shows. This year, the club will NOT have General Wednesday Meetings in June, July and August.

The Board of Directors will take time during July, but will still meet June and August.

Enjoy the summer.
