Welcome to 2021!
​

We are looking forward to good times this coming year and hoping to reconnect in person when it is safe to do so.  In the meantime we will continue with our virtual meetings, which interestingly has expanded the opportunity for many folks to join that could not make it to in-person meetings in the past for various reasons. 

We learned a lot about the virtual world and its possibilities in 2020, and look forward to continuing the journey in 2021.
~ Connie Clark, President. ​
