Call for Volunteers
It is time for you, yes you, to get involved in RRNN. Two of our interest groups have been without leaders for months. Safari and Lunch Bunch are both very social and interesting groups that a lot of new and old members have enjoyed. Please think about volunteering just to host for one month. If several people share the responsibilities, the groups will be up and running in no time. There are so many fun and unusual places to visit in Austin and quaint restaurants are everywhere. It's a new year so let's make a resolution to get these groups back on the RRNN calendar.
