CFFS Annual Spring Social

To CFFS members who have paid their current year dues

You are invited to our annual spring social, a casual event with no speaker. Brenda Schoonover has graciously agreed to host this event once again. As usual, it will feature a potluck lunch beginning at noon on Saturday, May 27. Please RSVP to Brenda by May 20, preferably by email (rcschoon2@aol.com) or phone (919-967-7898), if you plan to attend and what entrée, salad, or dessert you will bring. Beverages will be provided.  Those attending who do not wish to contribute a dish are asked to pay $15 per person when they arrive to help us defray the cost of the event.

Brenda lives at 110 Ironwoods Drive in Chapel Hill (if you use a GPS, please note the address as there is an Ironwood Pl. elsewhere in Chapel Hill).

The invitation to this very popular event and a directory of CFFS members, updated annually, are your benefits from being dues-paying members of our organization. Since dues are the only income we have to meet ancillary costs of the luncheons and spring social, we thank you for your contribution.

Regards,

Gwen Clare
