Vietnam War Memorial Dedication - October 5

You may recall that a year ago, we asked for donations in support of the Atlanta Vietnam Veterans Business Association plans to install a beautiful monument in Dunwoody’s Brook Run Park to honor both American and Vietnamese soldiers who fought and died in the Vietnam War. We donated $5,000 and the monument is just about complete. You are invited to attend the dedication of the monument on Saturday, October 5 at 11:00 am. Hope to see you there!

Fellowship and Fun
Can You Host a Wine Fellowship Event?

The host furnishes the napkins, small plates, plastic wine glasses, ice water, and non-alcoholic beverages. Participants bring a bottle of wine and/or an appetizer to share. Contact Louise Barden.
