If you have communicated to anyone on the board and not received an answer, or if you need anything in the meantime, please email the President at chefgretchen@bellsouth.net.

 


Elections for the 2019-20 SBBA Board will be held during this meeting. We will also discuss details regarding the upcoming fundraising opportunities, including the Braves CHOP TEAM and the March Mattress Madness Sale.
