Hanging Out at Frankie’s

It’s a Social, so grab your other half, a friend or just bring yourself to Frankie’s, Thursday, November 21st at 6:30 pm. Everyone had such a great time at Dining for Dollars that we thought it would be fun to do it again as a group! Expect some conversation, maybe some games, probably a few drinks and always great food and friends.

A Note From President Rita - November


I am excited to tell you that our State President Cat Schumann will be attending our November 25th meeting. The meeting will start at 6:30 so we have time to give to our guests. Along with Cat, we will have State Program Managers for Living & Learning, Wishes & More and Youth of Today attending to give a little information about their programming areas. Also attending from Monticello is their State Delegate who is doing a visit with Cat. The busy Holiday Season is upon us. Thanksgiving is coming up quickly and we all have so much to be thankful for. I am thankful for the many friends I have made in Women of Today all around the State and all of those members who have supported me over the years in whatever area I have chosen to serve. I encourage you to start thinking about the positions in our organization and where your interests are. There are also many service projects and fun events coming up in the next 5 weeks and some postholiday events in 2020 are in the works as well. Check out the calendar and see what is coming up! Feel free to invite friends and family to join us. We will be baking cookies, singing at the Ambassador, serving food to the kids at Crisis Nursery and partying with our friends at the Holiday potluck on December 16th .
