They're held at a local coffee shop or restaurant on the first Saturday of each month, unless there's a conflict with another League event. The next TLC will be held Saturday, April 5 at Panera Bread in Festival at Riva Shopping Center. Anyone interested in connecting with our League is welcome to stop by between 10:30 a.m. and 12:00 noon.
