Message from President Billie Araiza

Greetings!
Please join me this Wednesday for our last Business Meeting for the 2020/2021 Club Year. This will be our last club meeting before we go dark for the summer. The club will resume meetings in September and Sara Beacham will be the 2021/2022 Club President.
Congratulations to Sara and all the 2021/2022 Board members and Co-Chairs. It was nice to see our members at the installation on Sunday. I’m sure our incoming officers appreciated having our club members there, cheering them on as they were sworn into their 2021/2022 Board positions. A huge thank you to Roseann Bradley for letting us have the installation at her house. She has a beautiful yard and we were grateful to have our installation there.
Sara will be doing a short breakout session for the committees at the end of this week’s Business Meeting. This will be a chance for next year’s committee members to meet with their new Co-Chairs and set up a day and time to hold their committee meetings next year. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to see who will be on your committee next year.
I’m looking forward to seeing all of you on Zoom, Wednesday, at noon. We will open up the Zoom meeting 10 minutes early if members would like to log in before noon to visit. This will be our last meeting until September, but we will have the opportunity to see each other over the summer when we do our summer lunches.
With Gratitude,
President Billie
“Whatever we are waiting for—peace of mind, contentment, grace, the inner awareness of simple abundance—it will surely come to us, but only when we are ready to receive it with an open and grateful heart.” —Sarah Ban Breathnach

SI Objectives Co-chairs
"Where are my leaders at? I need just two individuals to lead the SI Objectives committee. This is an important committee that houses membership and our Dream programs, Live Your Dream and Dream It Be It. The committee is full of strong women (we all are strong women). I need you, just two of you, to help lead this committee. Many thanks! ~Sara"
