All ACTIVITIES HAVE BEEN CANCELED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.

As you all know by now, events at many local and national venues have been cancelled in hopes of containing the spread of the COVID-19 virus. We have decided it is in the best interest of our club and community to cancel all our activities for at least the next 30 days. We feel that it is our civic and moral duty to take part in the global effort to help reduce this threat. This was not an easy decision, as we realize that it will impact many people; however, we have chosen to err on the side of caution, and hope you understand our decision.
