We have rescheduling the Janurary lunch due to weather and hope for a less slick and wet afternoon. Please mark your calendar for March 26, 2024.

Our Guest Speaker is Catherine Browder

She will walk us through her years of experience as a writer and when it comes down to publishing your work. Her latest book ” The Manning Girl” had a release & signing date of Nov 19th 2023. You can pick up a book at this luncheon.
