We have an exciting NEW Winter Luncheon venue this year! The 1918 Exchange building at Jefferson Barracks served as a commissary store for soldiers stationed at Jefferson Barracks. After World War II, it was decommissioned and used for a variety of purposes to support the post until acquired by the Missouri Civil War Museum. Admission to the museum is included for all during the luncheon. Yay!
Britt Bunyard will be our speaker this year. Britt is the founder, Publisher, and Editor-in-Chief of the mycology journal Fungi.
Come enjoy the afternoon with some fungi friends, tasty potluck, silent auction and an excellent speaker. Bring a dish to share and don’t forget to make a label listing all ingredients to alert people with dietary preferences. BYOB, wine will not be provided this year but feel free to bring your own. The club will provide coffee and tea. Ice and water will also be available. Don’t forget to bring your own place settings!
Renee Bomanz will be organizing our Silent Auction again this year. Please consider donating items to one of the highlights of the day. Highest bidder wins so don’t forget to bring cash or a check.
This event has the largest number of MOMS members and their guest attending. Space is limited to 100. No one will be admitted without a reservation. At the luncheon, we’ll check you in as you arrive.
