If you weren’t able to attend, or maybe even if you were, you can listen to our coverage of the event! Our Program Director Tom Larson attended and recorded the festivities!

We got our first press coverage in the April 3rd Edition of Westmoreland News. Reporter and Colonial Beach resident Suzy Pietras-Smith attended the organizational meeting on March 30th, and filed the story below.
