DRIVER NEEDED

Our guided tour of Filoli is sure to be a pleasure, but we need one more driver. A few members have already promised to take as many passengers as their cars can hold. We are now in need of another driver who will have room for at least two or three passengers besides her own family or friends. If you have already made your reservation, please let Ruth Kuftin know if your car will have space for additional riders. Phone her or send an e-mail to rekuftin@comcast.net.
