The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club, venue for the Fifteen Annual Authors’ Luncheon, as always, lived up to our expectations. How could you go wrong listening to fascinating authors, enjoying a lovely lunch with new and old friends, and at the same taking in the panoramic views of the fantastic Chesapeake Bay? Now that’s multi-tasking!
The luncheon was preceded by the silent auction. We heard many friends say how great the silent auction was this year, the quality items were varied and beautifully displayed.
Our authors, Adam Goodheart, “1861: The Civil War Awakening“; Darlene Friedman and Roger Roth, “Star of the Week“; Caroline Preston, “The Scrapbook of Frankie Pratt,” patiently signed books while taking questions and exchanging stories with our guests. We can’t thank them enough for the time they took out of their busy schedules to spend the day with us.
We would be remiss if we didn’t thank YOU for your participation. You make everything the Ministry does possible. Many, many thank you’s for your generosity and support.
We are already in the planning stages for the Sixteenth Annual Authors’ Luncheon, March 2, 2013. Mark your calendars, we keep improving and we know you will not be disappointed.
