Hope you’re having a good week. We had a lot going on last week with a visit to Ventura Spirits, the peace rally and a fun party with fabulous music at Lara and Charles’ house. I was at the YMCA reception where they recognized our club. This Thursday we will learn more about the Mesa Program in Ojai and the support they give to the foster youth aging out. See you then!
In service,
Dawn Knowles
