Message from President
 Bonnie Chapman 

Greetings Soroptimists!

How do yellow jackets get to school in the morning?

By school buzz

Hope everyone is enjoying our ever-changing weather! Soon it will be the same every day...hot! I hope many of you will take advantage of the fun lunch social the Events committee has planned at the Chico Creek Nature Center this week. We have so many great venues here in town, it's good to take the time to visit them.

Right about now, I'm on the island of Hvar in Croatia, hopefully enjoying some sunshine, the beautiful Adriatic Sea and maybe a tasty beverage. See you all next week!

It's another great week to be a Soroptimist!


With Gratitude,
