 Dear Council Member

  

Next week the GGRWHC will host a reception both to show off new discoveries about local women's history and to celebrate the end of Women's History Month. If you haven't already renewed your tax-deductible dues, please do it in person at the Women's City Club on the 31st. An anonymous donor will buy current members a glass of wine! Check program details (www.ggrwhc.org) and reserve now: KSlrwin73@aol.com or 616-454-2425.

 

We will interrupt the party and program just long enough to ask members to approve a revised set of bylaws  and to add Jef McClimans to our governing board. Jef currently manages communications for the area National Organization of Women, and he is the energy behind their Then & Now fundraiser on April 13th, an oral history program about the local women's movement. Jef is a volunteer at the Cherry Street Planned Parenthood organization--and much more. Meet him on the 31st!

 

During the next year as we assess our needs more clearly, we will be adding more board members. Please make known your desire for information about opportunities to serve on committees or to volunteer for board duty: info@ggrwhc.org or Falinda Geerling at 616-735-0630.

 

See you next week!
