Last Meeting
We last met on Sunday, March 1st at 1 pm for a delicious Corned Beef and Cabbage dinner to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. It was wonderfully prepared by Chef Leif and followed by our meeting. Our meeting was short and followed by a showing of the movie “The Lady of The Lake” a “cinematic experience” surrounding a Native American Princess who is believed to have cursed the Lake Ronkonkoma area. There was first an introduction provided by cast member and Associate Producer, Leif Easterson. (AKA – Chef Leif)
Next Meeting
The next meeting will be Friday, April 10th at 7:00pm. At this meeting we will be voting on the 2026 Budget as well as finding members willing to serve on our Officer Nomination Committee. Prior to the meeting we will be treated to our annual Potluck Ham Dinner. Donna Gianelli has graciously taken on the task of preparing the Easter ham. And for those who plan on joining us for this delicious meal, you may do so under two conditions: 1. Dinner, dessert, coffee (and beverage) is FREE for each guest bringing a side dish or dessert and 2. $10 for all others.
