EVERYTHING WAS “DUCKY” AT THE CLUB’S SPRING LUNCHEON

June 7, 2026

Ducks were everywhere at the luncheon:  on the tables, balloons floating on the stage, and in the centerpieces.  GFWC Florida State awards from the May Convention were distributed.  Five new members were inducted into the club.  It was a “Quacking” good event.
