September 5, 2023: The first meeting of the 2023/2024 season was a meet-and-greet occasion. This memorable night was when members and new comers learn about the programs for the upcoming year. There were games and plenty of time for socializing. We also had a very special treat for our attendees.
June 14, 2023: The Advocacy Group had the privilege of screening a film on human trafficking that won numerous awards at the Mammoth Mountain Film Festival. The film, which has yet to be released in movie theatres, follows the story of a young Mexican boy who aspires to be a soccer star. The photography and acting were superb. Although difficult to watch, the film was gripping and powerful. Trafficking is a growing global crisis which impacts millions around the world.
