Bring some of your favorite edibles to share and join us for lots of fun! We’re asking HBG members, friends, and supporters to show favorite photos of travel, outings, the environment, or other things of interest to our group. If you have photos to share bring them on a USB flash drive and arrive at least 20 minutes early so they can be loaded onto a laptop before the meeting starts. Please, no more than 10 or so minutes per person, including your commentary. Mac Post, our Program Co-Chair, will coordinate the presentations, so contact him in advance with any questions about technical details, etc., 865-806-0980 or mpost3116@gmail.com. No photos? No problem! Come anyway and share the goodies and socializing. All welcome.
