Skalleagues…

Our Annual Holiday Party is taking place at The Misi by Messina’s…the beautiful brand new venue at JAX Brewery Millhouse (3rd floor) on Monday, December 9.   Skalleague Stacey Messina is so excited for all of us to see this gorgeous new venue and she and her awesome team are preparing a spectacular event for us.  For a sneak peak, check out the website -https://www.themisinola.com/
