I have to give the head count around the end of the month. If you have told your friends about the event, make sure they have THIS year’s invitation AND the RSVP so I can record the names of the attendees. Attached are the docs for the event and info relating to the Vietnam War. If you have any questions, call me at 520-868-6777.

We have a table of ten of which 7 seats are taken. If you elect to attend and want to join us, just put Mic Brewer on your RSVP.
