Last Thursday several of our members took a cruise aboard Foxy Lady Cruises and had a blast! It was a beautiful evening on the St Johns, and not only did we get to take in the usual sights and sounds of Downtown Jacksonville, but we were also treated to dolphins and rainbows! Thanks so much to the Social and Tailgating Committee for putting on a fabulous event. The networking fun continues this Thursday when we have a Meet-A-Member hosted at First Atlantic Bank in San Marco. It can be your tailgate location before the last Jaguars pre-season game! GO JAGS!

 

I look forward to seeing you all this week; our speaker will be Denise Bunnewith, Planning Director of the North Florida Transportation Planning Organization.
