SAFPPA Editor Annual Luncheon, Retirees' Association News

Annual Luncheon — POSTPONED

Our Executive Board has postponed our annual luncheon, originally scheduled for October 14, 2020, due to the uncertainty of how many members would be allowed to gather.

Over the last two years we have hosted between 700-800 members. This number greatly exceeds the number of people which the state is allowing for this type of event.

We will announce a new date for the luncheon once restrictions are lifted and the Executive Board agrees the Luncheon can be safely attended by all members who wish to attend.

The planning committee for the luncheon needs approximately 90 days prior to the event to get all the supplies, notices and RSVP’s. Please bear with us as we work to reschedule the luncheon as soon as possible.
