We welcome new members and guests who are interested in finding out more about our group of fantastic, traveling women (50+)! We will be talking about our favorite topic of travel, our upcoming events/trips, and most of all getting to know each other. Each person orders their own lunch. Look for a group of ladies, wearing name tags on the patio. This event fills up quickly!
