Fun at Supper Club

Our first Wednesday Night Supper Club was a blast. A great time was had by all. Our friends shared everything from fried chicken to tacos to steak. In addition to all of the culinary delights, we danced, played musical games and received dobro lessons (a fancy slide guitar). Special thanks to the Henderson’s for their wonderful music.

We look forward to seeing all our friends at next month’s Wednesday Night Supper Club (July 11th).

Dancing to Johnny Cash songs.
