The Las Vegas Colony will hold a joint meeting and Thanksgiving luncheon with the Nevada Southern Branch of the Sons and Daughters of the Pilgrims. We will gather on Saturday, November 15, 10:00 am at Dean's Place, located at 8355 Dean Martin Dr., which is near the Silverton Casino. Enjoy a delicious, traditional Thanksgiving turkey dinner with all the trimmings. After lunch, Dr. Linda Miller and Gary Parriott will present the program, “Walking in the Path of our Ancestors”. Membership in the Sons and Daughters of the Pilgrims (www.societyofthepilgrims.com) is open to lineal descendants from a Pilgrim, which they define as any immigrant who settled before 1700 within the territory that became the forty-eight contiguous states of the USA. A copy of an approved Mayflower Society application can be used to join the Sons and Daughters of the Pilgrims. Keep an eye out for a full invitation with the cost and how to RSVP. We’re looking forward to this event with a like-minded society.
