There are many social activities on our calendar, led by members. Many are free, the rest are very low cost. Some occur year-round, while others are seasonal (November to May). Social activities are a great way to get to know other members and build friendships. There's something for everyone! Please click HERE to see the current calendar.
If you'd like to add to the offerings, please contact Judy Seals, Vice Commodore (jcmseals@gmail.com) or Cathy Cross, interim Activities Chair tech@svyclub.com
