ANNOUNCEMENTS
Summer Outing of the Franklin Inn Club
Thanks to a generous gift to the Jenkins Arboretum by Jan Gordon, the Arboretum will be the site of our annual outing on July 16, 1 – 4 PM.
All members are encouraged to attend and bring guests; this is one of our year’s most popular events.
Located on Berwyn-Baptist Road in Devon, the Arboretum has amble on-site parking, and will make available their large electric passenger cart to assist FIC members into the main building. Also, it is likely the cart will be professionally driven along the Arboretum walkways, to enable mobility-challenged FIC members to see the full acreage.
Make your reservations SOON with our chef Tamara Van Winkle, who will oversee the Outing food and beverages.
