New Member Orientation
All members invited!!!

New Member Orientation is scheduled for Wednesday night, April 25th at 6:30pm in El Cerrito.
 
New members already received a personal invitation to attend, but we thought it would be good to let the entire membership know too.  It's a great opportunity to learn more about EWGA and the benefits of membership.  All members are welcome.
 
There will be drinks and appetizers and you are also welcome to bring a friend (or two) who might be interested in finding out more about the EWGA Northeast Bay Chapter.
 
Please RSVP to Margaret Hamersley membership@ewganeb.org as soon as possible if you will be able to attend and whether you will be bringing a guest.  The address will be provided when you RSVP.
