To the Editor:

The New York Capital District Christian Women’s Connection is sponsoring a luncheon on Wednesday, Sept. 11, at the Guilderland Elks Lodge at 3867 Route 146 (Carman Road) beginning at 11:30 a.m. and ending at approximately 1:30 p.m. Reservations are necessary, no later than Sept. 6, and cancellations a must. Please call Nancy at 518-869-0642 or Carol at 518-869-5253 to reserve.

On the menu this month is a chicken parmesan dinner with an alternative choice of grilled chicken salad.  The cost is $16 inclusive (cash only please).

The special speaker and special music for our September luncheon is one of our favorite people, Judi Merriam, who will not only be singing for us, but also sharing her personal story.

Our special feature this month is Bob Baker from the Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York, who will be speaking about their Backpack Program, which helps alleviate child hunger. Please bring a nonperishable item for the Regional Food Bank.

All are welcome at our luncheon; bring a friend or your significant other. They’ll be glad you did!  Nursery care is free at the restaurant by reservation only for infants through kindergarteners – bring bag lunch for the children.
