2016-2017 Projects
A Night at the Museum
On Sept. 28 we held our 3rd annual "Night at the Museum" recruitment event. Members brought cheese, crackers, fruit, and cookies to share with the 5 possible members.
The "Pride in the Big Picture" PowerPoint was presented by President, Diana Garza, brief introductions shared and a scavenger hunt of the museum enjoyed by all.
