Wow, what a great start to our year. We had the largest number of members at our September meeting to hear two terrific speakers, share conversation with old friends and hopefully a couple of new ones and to partake in some delicious snacks. Thank you to all those food volunteers who provided the mountain of goodies and to Diane and her crew for making sure everything was accessible.
Our first meeting was a great success with our speakers Barnes Sutton, Leland Economic and Community Development, to update us on the direction of the Leland area, and Karen Williams from Duke Energy. Both individuals gave us such important information and where our area is headed. They were so kind to stay around and answer the many questions that are on our members wanted to ask. Our October meeting is shaping up to be another informative and positive event. Our speakers, John Grimes, the Chief of the Town of Leland Emergency Management and Johnny Griffen, the Director of the Wilmington Film Commission will bring a bright perspective to their fields.
The meeting begins at 10:00, but we encourage you to join us for our social coffee time starting at 9:15.
If you know anyone who may be interested, please invite them to a meeting. Guests may attend one meeting, free of charge, to experience what our club provides to its members.
I want to thank the BOD and volunteers for their time and preparation for a successful year. If you would like to be one of volunteers, for a variety of opportunities, please feel to contact me or any member of the Board of Directors. We need you all!! See you at the meeting.
