Hi Barons,  This month we will be having our annual Christmas party.  Please be advised that the meeting starts @ 7 p.m. instead of 7:30 p.m.  There will be food provided by Clifford’s and of course homebrew and some commercial beers.  

We will be continuing with our socially distant protocol, that means Clifford’s will be serving the food and there will be no self serve items.   

Please remember that nobody can eat prior to Officer elections! If you still would like to run let the current board know ASAP!

If you would like to attend but would like to do it virtually please see the link below.
