In our last issue we announced our Backyard Picnic in June and reported on Lyres on Tires. (In case you missed it, Lyres on Tires is a group of AXO alumnae from the University of Southern California who are taking a road trip this summer, visiting AXOs around the country, gathering recipes & stories to create a one-of-a-kind cookbook that they'll sell to raise money for Domestic Violence Awareness.
Turns out the Lyre girls will be in the Lehigh Valley on Saturday, June 21 so were taking a detour from our original plans!
Please Join Us for a Potluck Picnic Hosted by Armida Heslep Lindsey, Alpha Zeta
June 21- 12:30 PM to 2:30 PM Armidas Home:1525 Shasta Lane, Macungie, PA
Bring your favorite appetizer, side or dessert along with copies of the recipe to share with your local sisters and the Lyres on Tires girls! Who knows, your recipe may just make it into the cookbook!
RSVP by June 16 at www.axolehighvalley.com/rsvp
