THÔNG BÁO HỦY CHƯƠNG TRÌNH DÃ NGOẠI THƯỜNG NIÊN VMAAC 2026

Kính gửi Quý Hội viên, Gia đình và Đồng hương,

Hội Tương Trợ Người Việt tại Connecticut (VMAAC) rất tiếc thông báo rằng Chương trình Dã Ngoại Thường Niên VMAAC 2026, dự kiến được tổ chức vào Chủ Nhật, ngày 16 tháng 8 năm 2026, sẽ chính thức bị hủy.

Đây là một quyết định không dễ dàng. Sau khi cân nhắc kỹ lưỡng, Ban Chấp Hành nhận thấy việc hủy chương trình năm nay là lựa chọn phù hợp nhất trong tình hình hiện tại.

Chúng tôi chân thành xin lỗi vì mọi bất tiện mà việc hủy chương trình có thể gây ra, đồng thời rất cảm ơn sự thông cảm, ủng hộ và đồng hành của quý vị đối với Hội trong suốt thời gian qua.

Kính chúc quý vị và gia đình luôn mạnh khỏe, bình an. Chúng tôi mong sẽ được gặp lại quý vị trong các sinh hoạt và sự kiện sắp tới của Hội.

Trân trọng,

Hội Tương Trợ Người Việt tại Connecticut (VMAAC)
