Welcome to November
It’s hard to believe that the holiday season is upon us. Best wishes to all our members, family and friends for a joyful season. Remember to let us know about your trips, travels and important personal news.
Did you get The LOG?
We hope you have enjoyed the latest issue of our venerable Club publication with great travel stories, photos and member news. We would love to have your feedback. If you did not get your copy, please let headquarters know via email. If you don’t save your copy, please don’t throw it away. Pass it on to a friend who travels or give it to your Chapter President to give to prospective members. Some members give the LOG to a local library. Thank you!
Save the Date
It may be a little early to plan for 2023 events but we want to call your attention to the Annual Meeting that will be held in NYC on May 19. In addition to the meeting, we have a terrific speaker slated to make a presentation. The presenter will be internationally recognized traveler and distinguished business executive Azman Mokhtar who went around the world in 77 days on 77 trains. Azman says, “I caught the wanderlust fairly early. And have never or wanted to be cured ever since.” Please consider joining us for this exciting event. Members and guests are welcome for the presentation.
