Our excitement is continuing to mount with the ever increasing number of positive RSVP’s we are receiving. We will be serving light refreshments for breakfast as well as serving a delicious lunch. Additionally, we will have daycare available for those of you with wee little ones. Seats are filling quickly and we hope you can take a break from shoveling and confirm your attendance by emailing planning@co.laplata.co.us or calling 970.382.6263.
