Our November lunch was held on November 9th at Natalino Italian Restaurant and it was attended by 70 MVWC members. The social time before lunch allowed members to get reacquainted and meet new friends. The food was delicious, the service was fantastic and we all were especially fond of the delicious Cannoli!
Our very own Vice President, Morgan Bartlett, was our guest speaker and she gave an amazing presentation on “Playing it Safe Online”. Morgan is a Certified Fraud Examiner and she opened all of our eyes on what to look for while we are navigating our Social Media and financial lives.
We wanted to share the list of FREE resources that Morgan provided to help all of us protect our information and our identity and a copy of her very informative PowerPoint Presentation.
