How did a young couple with
advanced degrees and international living experience meet in California and end
up acquiring a 100 acre farm in the City of Lockport? Come to our meeting at the Lockport Town and
Country Club March 5 at 7:00 to hear Bree Woodbridge share the amazing
story of how she and husband, Rich, took on the challenge of modernizing his
family's 1820s farm and 20 room farmhouse. Learn about the difficulties they
faced and their hopes for a prosperous future. Once again, we have the
opportunity to welcome a courageous young woman making a difference in
Lockport, please join us! Remember to make your reservation by 8:00 on Sunday, March 1. When making
your reservation please let your telephone committee member know if you would
like the dessert or fruit. Also, Marybeth Wilson is out of town for March’s
meeting. Please direct questions to Gail Marshall. Our hostesses will be Janice
Litz and Pat Kennnedy.
