Dear RWC Members,
The new Regency Women’s Club Executive Board has had its first meeting and is in the process of making plans for 2024-2025.
As we go into our 19th year, I think it is important to emphasize the significant contribution that the Regency Women’s Club has made in our community. In the last 10 years, we have donated over $112,000 to various charities and given over $68,000 in scholarships
As we enter a new term, we want to recognize your role in our successful 2023-2024 season and that of some of our key people and committees. In particular, I would like to recognize
Joan Hughes and the Community Service Committee; Mary Jo Rigby and the Fundraising Committee; and Nancy Converse, President and the Board for their hard work and dedication to our charities.
Our accomplishments for this past year were:
Nancy Converse and the Program Committee will be meeting this summer to plan new programs and menus for our monthly meetings.
I hope to see all of you at our first meeting. Plan to bring your neighbors who are not members so they can see what the Regency Women’s Club is all about. They can attend two luncheons without being members.
Enjoy the rest of the summer and see you at our September luncheon.
