Friendship Force Dallas

Many FF Dallas members will be attending the FFI North American Conference in Memphis from Fri Apr 24 to Mon Apr 27. Hope to see you there!!

edward perez, one of our members, will be a leader of the "Navigating MyFF & the FFI Website" workshop on Sun Apr 26. It'll be a hands-on session learning how to obtain info from FF websites as well as perform certain FF related actions. Bring your questions as we learn how to tame the FF websites to get what we need.

In October the FFD will welcome ambassadors from the Western Montana Club (mainly Missoula area) who will be joined by two from Wisconsin and two from Washington state. They will stay in our homes for a week and explore the Dallas area with us.
