TNT Event Friday, October 2, 7 pm
The TNT group is getting together at Billy G’s in Kirkwood on October 2 at 7:00pm. TNT used to stand for twenties and thirties (age) group. We have kept the name, but the age group has expanded a bit. The group is a dinner and special activity group that meets a few times a year. There’s no agenda really, just time with folks from church. Free childcare is offered at the church beginning at 6:30 pm. RSVP to Beth Willock if you can come and/or need childcare.
