Gratitude Message


By Karen C., Executive Chair


HAPPY THANKSGIVING, MERRY CHRISTMAS, and all the HOLIDAYS before and after.


What a wonderful 50th Anniversary celebration!! So many of you helped to make it really special! Thank you: Barbara F and Fran W for hosting at Palm Valley (and driving your golf cart in the cold): Lauren for the fabulous posters; Debbie P and Lindsey J for easing name tag distribution; Judith O and her team of Ticket sellers; Sheridan H for table assignments (not easy with everyone clamoring); Wendy Y for great graphics; and Yolanda G for selecting and recommending the playlist for the band.


From: Sharon S. Social Chair:

To: Deanna R, Debbie P, Dora O, Carole T, JoAnne A, Kris M, Lynn M: Words can hardly serve to tell you how very appreciative I am of your REALLY DEDICATED hard work on the decorations for TWC's 50th Anniversary. Many of our guests raved about how festive and exciting the decor was. Everything was splendid.


THANK YOU to all who attended and brought guests. We hope they enjoyed it. 


We are having a New Member Orientation Meeting in early January, so new members can attend the Annual Business Meeting.


A white vest was left at the venue (Nike Golf, size M). Anyone?


Attendees received a commemorative 50th Anniversary Glass. The extra glasses will be brought to the next several events for those of you who didn’t get one, and/or for purchase.


Will any of you who took photos please share them for posting on the TWC website? Just forward them to: twcthewomenscompany@gmail.com.


Within the next ten days, I will publish a proposed Slate of Officers for 2026.

 Any of you may volunteer to join the proposed slate or submit a Slate of your own for consideration.


For those of you who won’t be spending holiday time with family, please consider joining your TWC sisters at our Christmas Eve Open House. We offer good company, good conversation, food for a variety of tastes, and libations.
