MIDSUMMER SOCIAL SET FOR MONDAY JULY 15
We’re doing something different for the AHNA membership meeting on Monday July 15. Instead of meeting at Arlington Heights United Methodist Church as we usually do, we’re moving over to Lucile’s Stateside Bistro at 4700 Camp Bowie Blvd. for a special happy hour social. It starts at 6:00 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. and includes free hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar. Free door prizes, too.
Lucile’s is reserving the whole upper section for our party which is open to everyone, not just AHNA members. No guest speakers, no agenda, just a great opportunity to meet your neighbors in a relaxed and convivial atmosphere.
