Congratulations!: Former WIF Board Chair
Elaine Lyerly, a long-time leader with the Red Cross, has been tapped for a new position. She'll be the first chair of the International Council of the organization's Tiffany Circle.
Carolyn Meade, another go-getter former Board Chair, won the Women's Master Division of the inaugural Charlotte Heptaphalon to raise money for the Children's Scholarship Fund. So be impressed! The competition included seven events: pull-ups, dips, vertical leaps, a mile run, a 40-yard dash, a shuttle run and a 500-meter row.
The NC School of Dentistry is renaming a prominent lecture series after
Stephanie Chen, DDS in honor of her longtime alumna commitment. The "Excellence in Pediatric Dentistry" lecture series will be renamed the "Stephanie Chen Pediatric Dentistry Lecture Series."
Susan Patterson will serve as the Charlotte Mecklenburg Library's inaugural Community Fellow. Patterson will assist the Library's ongoing community engagement activities, serve as a thought leader, coordinate community-oriented projects and share her skills, knowledge and experience.
