On Tuesday, March 5th, we held our March Meeting. In addition to a great program, we celebrated reaching 200 members and took a group picture!
200 Member Celebration Cake
11 of the students in our Technician License Class became members and that brought our total members to 205! To celebrate going over 200 members, we had a cake during the refreshments portion of the meeting.
