Hello Everyone,
I hope everyone had a good weekend. Mine was great. I attended the Lebanese American Heritage Club Scholarship Dinner Friday, the Arab American Pharmacist association Annual Dinner Saturday, and the Northern Lebanese American Clubs Mother’s Day Dinner Sunday. During each event I spoke to attending guests regarding our upcoming Computer Center Event.
I have to give special thanks to the NLA Club members, specifically but not limited to Shukri Kazbour, Ali Mustafa, Abdul-Ghani Mekkaoui, Mike Mouhajer, Samer Chalak, Nasser Halwani, Fawaz Naja, Mariam Morad Elzain, Walid Mourad, Ummo George Saad. They exceeded their promise of promoting our event last night. I look forward to a continuing relations with your Club. We will discuss this in more detail tonight.
With that being said please let this email serve as a reminder for tonight’s meeting at 6:00pm at the LIBC office. If you have any question please email or call me 313.414.8188.
Happy Monday.
See you tonight!
