Last month was our Annual Luncheon. I would like to thank Kate and Gus for their efforts in making it a successful event! The tamales and sides were excellent and en- joyed by everyone attending!  This month the focus of our educational program will be on the New Orleans Mint. I am currently collecting information on the Mint, as I have time to do so, and should have some basics to make this an interesting topic. i hope everyone attends and be sure to thank Phil personally for the use of his house, albeit hopefully temporarily!
