No hurricane could stop us!

This year’s SLSA Grill and Chill took us to Grayson Lake in Eastern Kentucky for kayaking, boat rides, grilling, and plenty of chilling. The forecast may have caused a stir, but we still had the time of our lives!

Despite the weather, everyone was determined to make the most of our last outing of the year. It’s this enthusiasm, dedication, and sense of togetherness that make our SLSA community stronger.

Stronger together! 🇱🇰
