Message from the President, I am THRILLED TO SHARE our spring Annual Fundraiser was a HUGE success, raising $53,000 for scholarships. This events success was purely because of so many AMAZING women who came together to create and produce an event in the Great Falls community. Jackie Hughes, led us into a NEW direction this year with adding additional corporate underwriting for this event which ensured our success. Each of our Board members; Christie Lavin, Jackie Hughes, Emma Reynolds, Jenny Stephens, Jayana Garvey, and Lisette Kvortek. Plus our event committee; Lindsay Harper, Dynne Sung, Suzanne Charleston, Cory Clarke, Joanna Banks, Maggie Hammond, Megan Damron, Shelley Davenport, Becky Corcoran, Elle Dickerson, Ann Fragale, Jamie Bennett, Kelly Singer, Kathleen Gwinn, Karen Deardorff, Tressa Mattingly, Natalie Valmont, Kim Moss, Missy Perkins, Lisette Kvortek, Jacqueline Reid, and Ngyun Roche were all immensely wonderful and gave many hours of their time. Our tentative date for next year’s event is May 2, 2023 at River Bend Club, you can EXPECT a repeat of MORE FUN. Sally Anne Andrew Pyne |
