MAY 2016 EVENT ALERTS - PART 2

By Gloria Dulan-Wilson



Hello All:

There's so much going on, I actually had to do an additional Event Alert to encompass all of the wonderful things happening up and down the coast.  I just released a fairly comprehensive event alert last eek, but so much more info has come in, it's impossible not to share it with you.

As if your list wasn't long enough, you can add these activities as well.  Again, not exhaustive, but great, positive, uplifting & absorbing.

ENJOY!!
