International Flavors, 8/21

Friday August 21 we will be offering International Flavors in the Social Hall. Two immigrant families will be offering meals typical of their home countries for you to purchase. You will pay the families directly. You can dine here or take the food to go. It’s an opportunity to try new foods, gather in community, and meet new neighbors.
If you can help with setup or cleanup, contact Nancy Kyle.
