Join us for a special Holiday Luncheon at 11:30 on Saturday, December 2 at The Club, Stateroom 1. Select a chicken or vegetarian dish, indulge in the sweet rolls and listen to our guest speaker, Congressman Artur Davis. During two terms serving as representative for Alabama’s 7th District, Davis has emerged as a leader on issues related to housing, education and health care.  The Birmingham News reported that Davis is now considering challenging U. S. Senator Jeff Sessions in 2008.

This will be an excellent program.  Reserve your place by sending a check and the form linked below to Yvonne Brakefield.  But hurry… deadline for reservations is Wednesday, November 29.
