A special MERCI BEAUCOUP goes to John Lamb and Lawrence Tuchmann for hosting once again a beautiful Soirée de Rentrée September 27th. More than 40 people attended and everyone enjoyed the delicious food, beverages and lively conversations (often in French).

We also thank the family members of our hosts who helped with the preparations as well as our Hospitality Chairwoman, Nancy Callahan.

It was a lovely start to our year !

Once again we thank Micheline Baker for graciously hosting our Bastille Day party. The Board presented out-going president, Marcella Jackson with an engraved gold necklace to thank her for her 22 years of service; several of the children found the pool warm enough to swim in. Cynthia McCorkindale sang French songs and entertained us on her keyboard. After a buffet dinner, several members played Petanque while others gathered with sparklers to sing La Marseillaise.
