Our very special featured guest is award winning comedienne, actress and speaker Kathy Buckley, who is billed as “America’s First Hearing Impaired Comedienne". Kathy will entertain us with her very personalized, humorous message and share her story on how she overcame some of the most difficult obstacles one can imagine in life, and met them with dignity, courage, and laughter.

Our night will include special vibrational music played by Mark Romero, an amazing musician and sound healer, plus there will be other festivities and surprises throughout the evening. In keeping with our theme and our commitment to continue to give back to our community, we have partnered with Second Harvest Food Bank and set up a food drive to provide hope and inspiration to those who are in need during these times. We encourage everyone to bring donations of canned or non-perishable food items to the meeting.
