The focus of our June meeting will be the presentation of our Women Helping

fundraising projects greatly contribute towards our scholarship fund. It is very
rewarding to be present as these scholarships are awarded to such deserving
women.
I would like to extend my thanks and congratulations to
our newly elected Executive Board, Committee Chairs, and our award recipients -
your willingness to serve and efforts are greatly appreciated.
Please remember to fill out new membership forms. I hope all members will be active participants on at least one committee.

forward to another successful year.
