 Note from GM - Karen
If you like to party, get the sand between your toes and like wearing white – then this year’s BAREFOOT BALL is an event you don’t want to miss!
The theme is a “White Party”, so you have no wardrobe dilemmas about what to wear – just anything white!
Let’s start 2015 off with a great fun night for MHYC members and friends, dancing on the sand and try the specially ordered “Barefoot Wines”!
I look forward to seeing you all there!
