LADIES HOLIDAY BRUNCH DEC 5

It’s the event all the ladies wait for each year!!!Saturday, December 5, take a break from the holiday rush and join your fellow Buckeye women for our festive annual brunch. The fun starts at 11 am, and this year we will again be at the Brio Italian Grille at Polaris Mall.  We have a private room reserved for our members, and valet parking is available. This is a great event for you to bring a friend who may be interested in learning more about our club.
As usual we will have a great meal, wonderful mimosas, and terrific gifts for everyone who attends!  We’ve all had a tough year, so we deserve to have a little fun this season.

WINE BISTRO DINNER WEDS OCT 21

Another event which got cancelled in the wake of the quarantine is our club favorite Wine Tasting dinner at the Wine Bistro on Lane Avenue in April. So we have re-scheduled this event for Wednesday, October 21, from 6:30 to 8 pm. 

Due to limits on the number of people allowed to gather, we cannot take any additional reservations for this event now.  Those of you who told us to keep you on the list for when the event is rescheduled, you will receive an email to confirm your availability on the new date. If multiple people cancel and we have available seats, we will advertise them to the rest of the membership.
