**LUNCH ETIQUETTE**
We are sure you know these things but a reminder never hurts!
Please be sure to dress appropriately for a ladies luncheon.
A new sound system has been provided by Sugarmill Woods Club but the acoustics are not the best and hearing can sometimes be difficult so please give your full attention during the meeting and especially to our guest speakers.
Please check that your cell phone ringers are off and if you need to use the restroom or step out, could you try to do so before the start of the program.
If you know you have to leave early could you try to sit near a door so you do not need to walk in front of everyone.
Thank you
