Greetings and Happy Fall!

What an amazing Kick-Off Luncheon we had at Chez Francois on September 11th! We had a sold-out crowd under the tent to enjoy a beautiful day together. Big thank you to Shannon Burwell for all of her work on this event. It was truly a special day.

We are jam packing October with fun fall events. I’ll highlight a few here but please check the website calendar for the most up to date information on time and locations. Thank you Christy Linn for keeping our busy calendar up to date!

We will jump right in with a Girl’s Night Out on Oct 1st at the New Great Falls Lodge. If you’ve never attended one, it’s a casual happy hour at a local bar/restaurant to get together before the weekend begins. Thank you to the fabulous Teresa Rutledge and Teresa Yurt (aka T&T) for putting these together.

On Oct 8th we’ll combine our All-Club Meeting with Wine 101 for an evening at Krop’s Crops. Join us for a hayride, BBQ, smore’s, and wine tasting. Dinner is included in the registration fee. Please bring a bottle of German style wine to share and taste. Guests and +1’s are welcome and encouraged at this fun event.

We’ll have a fun College theme Cocktail Party on Oct 17th hosted by Sumaira and Boz Malik.  Don your team spirit and bring your favorite tailgating style appetizer and a bottle of wine to share. Guests and +1’s are welcome!

Giving back goes with the fun we have together. Philanthropy lead Shannon Eaton has arranged for us to help a local women’s organization sort through their closet donations in preparation for fall and the upcoming holidays. Join us on Tuesday morning, October 20th as we help this special cause.

Join us on Halloween Saturday Oct 31st from 5-7pm for trick or treating on the green. We will have a table and a 360° Photo Booth. We do need volunteers to help pass out candy. How fun! Look for a sign up from Salima for more information.

Wishing you all a happy and safe fall season!
