Certified Financial Planner, Sara C. “Skeeter” Pierce will lead two Lunch & Learn Financial Planning Institutes at Dalton State College in May.

Designed for individuals nearing retirement or recently retired, the material covered in both these events will address financial issues that are unique to this particular group.
