TASC AUGUST 2019 NEWSLETTER

THERE IS NO MEETING THIS MONTH



MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

I cannot get over our wonderful 40th Anniversary Event. What an amazing turnout of both members and suppliers and I wish to thank all that who attended. We do have a great organization! It is hard to put into words how much everyone appreciated the job the Committee did in putting this together. I know I speak for all that attended, the venue, food, drinks, music, service and the photo booth, were more than everyone expected and I know everyone had a great time. 

For those who may be interested regarding the pictures that were taken at the photo booth, Ginny De Feo was gracious enough to share the link which you can use to view all the pictures that were taken by them that night. The link is www.dynamicbeat.com .

As there is no meeting this month I would like to wish everyone a continued great summer, try to stay cool, see you in September.

Yours in Travel,

Garrett P. Simulcik, Sr.
