No program due to Club Assembly but we did get to meet our new inbound foreign exchange student Nacho, His real name is Ignacio but he wisely figured Nacho would be easier to remember and spell. Nacho is presently staying with Bob and Dianne Sloan and their kids Autumn and Rory. The Sloans took Nacho to Seabreeze where he got his first experience with a roller coaster as well as a water slide. He also had another first when they took him to Sticky Lips BBQ and he decided that their ribs were the best thing he had ever tasted. So much more to discover!
