So many reasons to celebrate this month! It's an exciting time -- Easter, spring, beautiful weather, more freedom to be out since the availability of vaccine, and our new Board! Let's gather on April 21 from 5:00 - 7:00 PM at the Catholic Pastoral Center (Bishop's Hall) for Happy Hour, Dinner, Meeting and Installation of Officers. Joining us are two remarkable women leaders in the Catholic community: Judy Orr (Executive Editor of Catholic Charities) and Rebecca Hammel (Superintendent of Catholic Schools). Plus, we're meeting at a new venue! Complimentary wine and beer will be served. Cost is $25. Thanks Teri Gordon for making this event special. When Reserving Please remember to reserve only once for Dinner & Meeting, unless of course you're reserving for "Meeting only". That will help us to get a more accurate headcount. Also, please indicate if you have dietary restrictions or options. We want to make sure we cater to your needs. When Zooming If you're meeting virtually, please make a reservation just the same. We'd like to know you're joining so we can look forward to seeing your lovely face on the screen. Zoom info is provided on the website. Pease make sure you visit the website for details. |
