This
year’s executive board is on fire for CAABJ. We’ve planned various events for
the coming year. We feel you will find them enlightening, engaging and very
interesting. Our first General Body meeting will be Saturday, January 18th
at Loco Lime (1101 Central Ave, Charlotte, NC) at 11:00am.
We,
the new executive board and I are tickled to death in meeting our community
visitors, new members and embracing our season members. I can’t wait to meet
and greet each and every one of you.
Until then, Cheers!
