CHAPTER NOTES
September 15, 2006
From Marlene Davis, SoCal Chapter, Los Angeles
The 21st
Annual African Marketplace & Cultural Faire was
a great success again this year. We had a
steady stream of visitors to our booth. Our
chapter has participated in this event, sharing the
booth with Black Meetings and Tourism, for at least
nine years.
In previous
years much of our conversations were with the
public who want to go to Africa. This year it
struck us all just how many had just returned
or were traveling for first time in near
future. Our volunteers are all veteran Africa
travelers and were able to provide good
information.
We give special
thanks to our volunteers. They were Marlene
Davis, Marilyn Walton, Sylvia and Ron Mracky, Fran
Harris, Bill Jones, Mike Madison, Rita Rubin,
Carmen Blake, and Edna Davis. All three
weekends (7 days total) were sunny, hot and became
windy in the afternoon.
Send us news of your
chapter activities.
