Several of our members gathered to celebrate another successful club year.
December 9, 2021 - Holiday Meeting and Party
This year, we had a hybrid holiday gathering with some members participating on Zoom and some in person at Germaine's office. We assembled ten "Hope Bags" with toiletries, snacks and other items for victims of domestic violence. Terri provided cookies that club members decorated during the party.

December 10, 2020 - Holiday Meeting and Party
Our first Zoom meeting and holiday party was a lot of fun. We enjoyed a cup of cocoa made from a mix that Terri had sent each of us in advance of the meeting. We wore our favorite holiday garb and had an “ugly” Christmas sweater fashion show. President Terri administered a 20-question holiday trivia quiz, which was both challenging and enjoyable. Judy earned bragging rights for having the most correct answers. The meeting ended with an inspirational reading of " 'Twas the Night Before Christmas" by Germaine. .

December 12, 2019 - Holiday Meeting and Party
Chaired by Terri, the party included a great barbecue dinner and fun holiday themed games. Thanks to generous donations from members, the club raised $481 during the party for the December 10 Soroptimist International President's Appeal, “The Road to Equality”. The donations will benefit much of the Soroptimist International advocacy work, such as child marriage, FGM/C, the rights of older women, human trafficking, migration, and domestic violence.

Chaired by Laura, the party included an ornament exchange and scrumptious cookies. Thanks to generous donations from members, the club raised $415 during the party for the December 10 Soroptimist International President's Appeal to fund women, water and leadership projects.
