September happenings in Aloha-land!

A. MDA ALS Support Group "Fall into Fall" POTLUCK Picnic

         Every year in September, we head out to our picnic spot at Ala Moana for our Annual "Fall into Fall" potluck.  The BIG reason is that QCC has no room for us on the second Tuesday of every September. That's why.  Always a great chance to have fun and socialize, as we welcome the ....ber months: September, October.....They could also be called the ....brrr months as fall weather starts nipping at our toes. So, please gear up to be at the picnic!! See you all there!

WHAT: MDA ALS Support Group Potluck
WHERE: Ala Moana Beach Park Site #30 (ewa-side of the Magic Island parking lot below)
WHEN: September 14, 2016, 5:30-7pm
