Meeting Description
Who
- This is event for all members new and not so new to get acquainted. This is where new members can meet already existing CGSA's in a nice relaxed, social atmosphere over a cocktail or soda and an appetizer of choice if one so chooses :).
Why
- Ah, cuz the people are great, the smiles are warm and the laughter is contagious. It's hard to explain us CGSA's, you just have join us and learn for yourself. Bottom line, we're awesome!

"I'll be goofy one, wearing a CGSA shirt, wearing a CGSA pin, carrying a CGSA tote bag and more than likely be the one looking for a place to hang a CGSA banner...think I'll be hard to find?? :)"

Details
We've had some requests to check out Dukes...so we will be holding our new member bi-monthly cocktail hour here next month.
Dukes is in the Francisco Grande Resort. Head West on Florence Blvd and you'll come across Francisco Grande on the right hand side. Enter the main entrance facing Florence Blvd (which is actually AZ 84 Gila Bend Hwy out west). The resort is approximately 5 miles West of Pinal Ave.
I've talked with the manager and they are expecting us :)

P.S. We are still looking for that perfect nitch of a happy hour for this bi-monthly event. We've tried McMasher's (that's a definite no at least for our new member socials) and we tried Mr. K's (now Cabo's, this needed work as well but has potential). We're giving Dukes a whirl this month and will be trying the local bar in Cottonwood Lanes Bowling Alley in July. If anyone else has any ideas on where a great place would be to hold these meeting, come forward :).

"As per usual, the bar wasn't prepared for us...what is it with happy hour joints in this town?? But also as usual, the laughs and conversations overshadowed the negative. I had so much fun! Paul and Scott were such a kick..we were recruiting from other states last night, haha. " -
