CAPTAIN'S MESSAGE

Our next meeting will be next Thursday, Aug.13th at 7:00 P.M. in the Town Center. All team members, associate members and anyone interested in joining our team are urged to attend.

We're in the middle of hurricane season and we will review our plans should a storm, or disaster target VeronaWalk. Please make every effort to attend.

Our supply order, from the grant, has arrived and we'll distribute the materials at that meeting.
