The club has decided to continue meeting at Suntree Village for the entire year, not taking a summer break. Most meetings have been well-attended! A couple of meeting were postponed a week or two due to weather (January) or travel to other events (March). Otherwise, the 2nd Tuesday remains the scheduled date.
The August 13, 2024, club meeting at Suntree Village included refreshments, a raffle, and a program on “Olympic Participation Medals of the Summer Games” given by Eric, who will check to see if there were any participation medals from the just-completed Paris Olympics, and then post the program online.
