[nfbmi-talk] picnic updateFw: Volunteering at Camp Tuhsmeheta

[Donna Posont]

Hey Western Wayne chapter members, In the past we have talked about Camp 
Tuhsmeheta and some of us were able to spen a delightful chapter weekend 
there last fall. If you enjoyed Camp T in the fall then you should 
experience the surroundings in the summer. I am forwarding you this 
announcement about the need for volunteers so you may see if it fits into 
your summer of fun.  Also I wish to correct the last email in that the date 
for our August chapter meeting and potential picnic is Saturday August 7. 
Bring your ideas to our June 5 meeting and I will also bring some prices for 
purchasing ribs and or chicken if we decide to proceed in that direction. 
Thanks and be blessed, Donna
