It’s your turn to help out the club.

Summer is fading into fall. Pick any kind of activity you

Hopefully, you can schedule your event in time to get an article in the newsletter!! Articles are due the 20th of the month; email your article to Andrea and your email will go out to all our members.

Make sure the event doesn’t conflict with any major FaGowee events. If the event requires expenditure of club funds, then you will need to get board approval before we can publicize it.
