Activities and Events
The convention will begin on Thursday afternoon, July 28, when fellowship and refreshments will be available. On Thursday evening a reception will be held for first-time attendees, followed by a reception for all members and guests.
On Friday afternoon, July 29, there will be a golf tournament at the Boca Raton Resort course. There also will be a fishing tournament with charter boats leaving from the resort docks. That evening there will be a gala reception and banquet dinner. The festivities will include drawings for gifts provided by some of our sponsors. Tickets will be sold for the opportunity to acquire one of these gifts.
Last year there was a cooking demonstration and lunch served on Friday afternoon for those who registered. It was so successful that we have decided to repeat it this year with a stellar chef at the resort making the presentation.
The officers and board of directors of FSLA express their appreciation for the sponsorship of many of the convention events by our membership.
