Brandon’s Roaches Service Team will host a Winter Soiree Thursday, February 16th at 6:00 pm at the home of Charles and Jody Muldrow.
This is an opportunity for us to connect in a more intimate and casual setting as a small group and get to know one another better, and an opportunity to invite a potential Rotary member. And of course spouses are invited.
Charles will provide wine and beer, and Jody is already planning some heavy hors d’oeuvres. You are welcome to bring something, but it is not required. Just let Charles know in that regard. Also let him know if you are a beer drinker, a wine drinker, or something lighter.
So please confirm your attendance so that Charles can get a head count. IF you have a potential member that you would like to invite but haven’t yet, now is the time to ask. You may RSVP for the unknown guest as Tentative.
Attached is a map to the Muldrow house, located at 272 Bampfield Drive in Hobcaw Point. 2nd house on right on Bampfield – Green board and batten siding.
