[NFBP-Talk] Federation Focus for the Week of April 28 from... Las Vegas!🎰

[David B. Goldstein]

Hey there PA Federationists!

This week's Federation Focus comes to you from Las Vegas! Don't worry, 
I'm not wearing one of those skimpy showgirl outfits. Liz wouldn't have 
been able to hold the camera steady from laughter if I was wearing one!

Check out the video: https://youtu.be/2fe-R-yz1jc

There are two meetings (see the links below) and two fundraisers that I 
talke about in the video.

One fundraiser is tomorrow at Landmark Americana at 3333 Market Street 
in Philadelphia and benefits the Keystone Chapter. Keystone will receive 
25% of your food and drink tab on all regularly priced menu items, 
including adult beverages!

You need to print the Sip. Savor. Support Flyer [1], grab some friends 
and head to Landmark Americana for lunch, dinner, or drinks! What are 
you going to get?
