Thank you to everyone who joined us for Civics Trivia Night at Mohawk Trail Regional School. We have some photos on our Facebook page—of particular interest are the teacher-created mocktails! Very clever civics-punny names, and they were delicious!

Thank you to the Fabulous 413's Monte Belmonte and Kaliis Smith for serving as our Quiz Masters—they were fabulous indeed!


And so much gratitude to Bethany Basal, Catherine Glennon, Julia White, and Tinky Weisblat for all their Herculean efforts organizing the Smithsonian "Voices and Votes" exhibit and programming, and to Carol Foote for documenting the process every step of the way! It was so special having this exhibit in our community—we couldn't have been happier to be one of their many community partners.


Finally, thank you to the invaluable LWVFC members who helmed the entire Civics Trivia Night experience: Catherine Keppler, Charlotte McLaughlin, Ruth Odom, and Denise Petrin! Without them, there'd be no Civics Trivia!

Membership renewal reminders have started hitting inboxes, so keep your eyes peeled. The sender will read "Membership," and the notices will come from LWVUS, who are now administering those efforts. Dues are now "Pay What You Can," with a baseline of $25, and a recommended amount of $75—choose the level that works for your budget and join us!
