So if you have ever traveled to one of these (or more) countries, here the an opportunity to reconnect with great memories and new friendships.
The group spent the day in Nogales seeing the border wall, meeting with the Nogales Police Department, the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s department (Undersheriff, Geraldo Castillo) and then off to the Chamber of Commerce where they met with the President/CEO, Olivia Kramer and Government Affairs Chair, Manny Ruiz.
The border wall is always an interest to the visitors since it makes worldwide news.
This is the last group that I will be the programmer for and Abbi Gold will be taking over tonight! It’s exciting to have her as the programmer from now on. We wish her the best!
