Jeff Barnhart and Erin Cuneo are hosting a Movie and BBQ night
It's going to be at Jeff's house in Torrance and the cost is $3 which will cover food/desserts. We are so excited about the summer finally being here and want to start it off right by getting some of the college/young adult people together and celebrating! FINALLY--No finals, homework, school, etc. for a little bit!! Well, at least for those who aren't taking summer school!! If you are taking summer school, I'm sorry. :( But at least you're getting classes out of the way!
RSVP by Wednesday, June 23rd. Hope to see you all there! :)
Erin Cuneo :)
