About Let's Connect
The Let's Connect weekly sessions first began early in the pandemic as a response to the isolation brought on by COVID-19. The sessions have since grown to become a regular gathering of friendly and interesting people. Facilitated by Tracey Barnes-Priestley, this hour of conversation focuses on a new topic each week. It is a time to share meaningful stories, thought-provoking experiences, and often, plenty of laughter. Please join us!
