Announcements: Week of 11/16/2022

Aloha! As some of you may already know if you saw the board meeting Monday evening, our trip to Hawaii in April of  2024 has been approved! We are working with the travel agent to arrange an official kick-off meeting before the first of the year.  At that point, we will have a tentative agenda in place, the trip’s cost, and a payment plan. This trip is a wonderful opportunity, so start saving your pennies so we can all relax on Waikiki Beach in under 18 months. Other news for this week includes:
