Dear RWC Members.
The new Regency Women’s Club Executive Board has met and is in the process of planning a very exciting 2023-2024 year.
As we enter a new term, we want to recognize your significant contributions to our successful 2022-2023 season. All these accomplishments occurred after many hours of planning and implementation.
We thank Pat Valle, her Community Service Committee, Mary Howell, and her Fundraising Committee for their hard work and dedication to our charities. We are also grateful for the fantastic support from Regency residents who generously gave to our Back 2 School, Teddy Bear, Children’s Coat Drive, and Haymarket Food Pantry collections and their continued support of our fundraising efforts on behalf of our charities.

Barbara O’Connor and the Program Committee have been meeting this summer to plan new programs and menus for our monthly meetings. The new menus look delicious.
Most of our meals will be plated, with a few buffets when the menu calls for it. Chef Brian will create a different parfait dessert each month.
Look for RWC’s e-mail blast at the end of July for details and sign-up links.
