New This Year:
Friday Night Dinner: Come over to our place for dinner! Please join your WEAC colleagues for a “family style” dinner – arrive by yourself or with a group. You’ll join a table of six with a WEAC leader and share this family-style meal. Use this as an opportunity to catch up with old friends, make some new, and enjoy a home-style, comfort food dinner so delicious you’ll think your Mom is in the kitchen. Even better, we won’t ask you to do the dishes.
