Well another year has wrapped up, at least for the planned fellowships! I am so thankful for the hard work put in by Tracy Holmes, Evelyn Owens, Tammy Waldron, Tracy Behrens, Michele Norman, Sue Cerrillo, Jacki Wiegel, the Lawson’s– hopefully I didn’t miss someone who prepared diligently for each fellowship.

As a reminder these meetings/fellowships are designed to encourage you. With that being said I would like to ask for ideas for next year. Is there a topic you would like to see addressed?

Please mark your calendar as we have a special family night planned for the October Meeting which will be held on October 10th;  for now it is a surprise, but as we get closer to the date I will give you more details.

So, let me know what worked this past year and what you would like to see this year coming up………..please email me at: cbcgay@gmail.com
