Light refreshments and social time start at 9:30 a.m., followed by brief business meeting and the program SWFL Weather & Hurricane Preparedness.

Greg Rule, WINK News meteorologist, will be back again as the program speaker at the September meeting. His fascinating talk and slide presentation were a big hit at last year’s meeting! So, we’ve invited him back to give us an updated look at our weather in Southwest Florida.
