This meeting, held at the Royal Coachman, was very well attended.  We had over 83 members and guests.  Our guest speaker, Carolyn Touhey and spotlight, Cheryl McIvor entertained and educated.  Everyone was welcomed and well fed.  Thank you to the board and the Coachman for such a wonderful night.  Please join us for another great evening at our next meeting on February 22, 2011 at the Coachman.
