Greetings Adobe Members!
The Adobe Whitewater Club board and membership committee have
a number of exciting things in the works including fascinating monthly meeting
presentations, pool sessions, and more.
We look forward to sharing this information with you soon.
I’d like to take the opportunity to share some community events of potential interest to our membership, many of which were mentioned at our membership meeting/ learning presentation earlier this week. Please note that as these are being sponsored by other local organizations in New Mexico, you will need to follow up as indicated if you are interested in participating. Please be sure to follow up as required by the sponsoring organization.
