Welcome! All women are welcome to attend and participate in any of the events or groups we host. There is a small group of women who serve as a planning board to ensure that new events are scheduled and set up. Someone who wants to become involved can do so in several different ways and we encourage you to join us however you can.
Our Events:- We will be hosting different events throughout the year; this page will list upcoming events when they are planned. Come back often to see what is on the calendar.
- Some events will be held during the week, some on weekends since we know that family or work schedules may limit availability.
Planning:- This can be done by joining us for our monthly meeting. The meetings for the coming year have been scheduled for the second Tuesday of the month at 7:00 pm. Contact us if you would like to participate.
- You can help in smaller ways with just one event. If you see something on the calendar and would like to help get in touch with us. Each event will have a small planning group of its own. Many hands make light work.
- Send us feedback on events you have attended, or thoughts you may have about something we could consider doing. Please send us an email.
