The SaddleBrooke Freethinkers and Gays, Lesbians, and Allies of SaddleBrooke (GLAAS) held a joint social at the SaddleBrooke HOA-1 Activity Center on Friday, September 29.

Over 110 SaddleBrooke residents (members of either Freethinkers, GLAAS, or both) were treated to a wonderful dinner to kick off the fall season. There were indoor and outdoor tables where members could dine under the stars on a beautiful September night featuring a full Harvest Moon.
