Join us at the Woodside Town Hall for the Chapter Meeting, which begins at 5:30 pm - that's an hour earlier than usual. The reason?

CDS Director, and SFP Chapter Member, Susie Lombardi reported from the CDS Annual Meeting, held last month: "I felt the Annual Meeting was very interesting. The creator of Fox Village, Pete Jorgensen, gave a very comprehensive lecture regarding show secretary, and a visual demo with large screen and individual laptops. Connie Davenport gave a lecture regarding show management. Both were very well received and something that has been needed for a very long time."
