What an exciting evening we had during our August Annual Community Outreach Charity Event!!!!  Slingshot provided a fantastic venue (their very first Event!) with Bowling, Cart Racing (Andretti Style!), Drinks, and Appetizers that seemed more like a Buffet Dinner!!!  

 
 


Not only was the evening enjoyed by all, but hundreds of Hygiene Kits, through Clean the World, were packaged for our local charities.  Watching all the "battles" for the "last sign in" for the Silent Auction items was quite the topic of conversation, and actually became the highlight of the evening!!  Who would go home with the prized possessions!!!???  
 
 
 
The September Meeting, Hosted by IBERIABANK, with A Divine Event, Popcorn Palapooza, and specialty beer and wine distributed by Peachtree Growler, was a delightful opportunity for those in attendance to meet new and see old friends while enjoying the great culinary delights!!!
