Our First Meeting

Our first meeting went well. We had almost 30 members in attendance. That is a great number. I hope more can come to our November meeting. Brian Hicks from the Post & Courier will be our featured speaker.
Mary Thrift opened our meeting and several reports were given. I did note that October is the month we will close our CD and place the funds in our checking account. We did pass on the reading of our minutes from our May meeting.
Laura from AAA was our first presenter.She spoke about what paperwork is needed to get a "Real ID." The documents required are:
1. Your Social Security card
2. Two proofs of residency: each proof must have your name on it.
3. Your marriage license. if you have been married more than once you have to bring that documentation too.
4. A certified copy of your birth certificate. (I remember when we had to get my father-in-law's birth certificate. There wasn't one as they did not issue them way back when. So we had to go to his church's records. )
I hope you can find all of these. Some members said getting a passport would be easier.
The next portion of our meeting was a musical presentation from the "Voices of the Lowcountry." I took a video of one of the first songs they did from the "Sound of Music." But it is too large of a file to add here. Sorry!
 So I added two of the pictures I took while the group was performing.
