Mark your calendars for April 16th 6pm-8pm and April 17th 9am-11:30am. More information to follow. Also, April 30th there will be a virtual Installation of Officers where our own Mary Black Pearson will be installed as Governor for the 2021-2023 biennium and they will share awards for Carol White's year.
