We all have our "thing" that we love to do and want to expand on. It could be (insert present tense action words here) and we love it because it makes us happy, it holds our interest, it keeps us busy, it helps us be social, it may even help us inform others. Maybe you are interested in some-thing but you don't know how or where to start, and you are afraid you won't be good at it; DO IT ANYWAY!
This Spring, this month's newsletter is full of social events for you to find your "thing". Check out the categories below and share what inspires you.
