Frank and Frances Giove spoke at the July 14th meeting of the Woodstock Chapter of AARP. They presented a talk about their recent Viking cruise to the wine country of France. They talked about the ins-and-outs of river cruising; and narrated a great trip to the wineries.

Do you know why they plant rose bushes at wineries? Rose bushes are an early warning signal to the growers that a fungus has occurred; so they can take action before it reaches the vineyard. Frank and Frances also talked about their other river cruises to Germany and China.

Also, the Woodstock Chapter collected school supplies to be donated for needy children.
