May 14, 2009
The golf outing is May 16, 2009 at
Walden Pond Golf Course. Sorors who
will volunteer are asked to report to the
course at 11:00 am. I have directions.
We have a total of 60 golfers and approximately 42
Hole Signs, however I am sure we will get to the fifty
mark that was planned. Violets to all Sorors for
working hard on obtaining and especially the
neophytes. We are also stuffing bags after the
meeting and you are welcome to stay and help.
