HRL River Rats Membership Appreciation Cookout

Our next meeting will be on Saturday, April 20th, at Mark & Susie’s house. The pool will open at 2pm & we will eat around 5pm. The Executive Board will be doing all of the cooking to show their appreciation for everything the membership does for our organization. We will be having hamburgers & hot dogs with all of the trimmings along with appetizers & desserts. So, all you need to bring is your appetite, a swimsuit, a towel & as always BYOB! There will be a short informal meeting following dinner. Please note that this meeting will cover the April AND May meetings. There will not be a meeting in May.

Email highrocklakeriverrats@gmail.com for the meeting address if you don’t know where to go.

Membership dues for 2024 were due last December! Please see our membership chairperson, Mary Anne, at our next meeting to re-up or you can print a form on this site & mail it in with your dues!

Either way, we’d love to have you back!
