President’s Message It has been quite a year – our membership has grown, the number of members at the meetings has been steadily increasing, verbal accolades have been given regarding the entertainment events, and the food has been rated good to excellent, including the first ever chili and cornbread. All this has been due to the participation, support, and diligence from many, many members including the board, the committee chairs, and the myriad others who contributed in a small or large way throughout the year. I am proud to have served as your president, and thank each of you for your time and commitment. Lil Hickman, Belle Aire Social Club President .
