Hello Everyone,

Our speaker tomorrow is Laurie Harris.  She will speak about her Nonprofit ‘Lulus Petals of Kindness’ which repurposes donated flowers into bouquets. These are delivered gifts that provide an unexpected moment of joy to improve the wellbeing of seniors and veterans. Her nonprofit does so much more, so please attend to learn more of this wonderful giving nonprofit.

Thank you to our speaker last week, Nate Duckett, Mayor of Farmington.  He gave us such great information and we learned updates regarding utilities, fuel, the Pinon Hills Bypass, and other goings on in our community.  So many things to look forward to and we appreciate your time Mayor!
