Pics from the Orange County Summer Social

Yesterday I attended the Orange County NASPP chapter’s summer social. The event was held at a restaurant in Irvine and was a great opportunity for members to network and chat in a less formal setting than a traditional chapter meeting.  The food was great, the conversation was even better, and I think everyone had a great time.  Here are a few pics from the event.
