- May meeting: Our last meeting of the year will be a social meeting at the home of Frances Clark on Tuesday, May 3. (Thank you, Frances!) We'll play LCR, a dice game that Frances will teach us that allows a lot of time for socializing! Everyone will be asked to bring six $1 bills as well as a small appetizer or dessert. Look for the Evite to come out soon.
- Philanthropy project: Our project this spring will benefit Charlotte’s new Ronald McDonald House, which provides a “home-away-from-home” for families so they can stay close by their hospitalized child at little or no cost. We’ll be collecting toiletries, office supplies, kitchen items, cleaning supplies and more to help open the house and make it feel more like home! More information will come soon from our philanthropy chair Vicki Burger.
- Spring party: Party planning is underway and it’s going to be a fantastic evening! If you haven’t already, please RSVP on the Evite AND by leaving a $35 check on the doorstep of Megan Louis’ home, 3724 Chevington Road, by April 23.
- Dues: It’s that time again! To rejoin the club for next year, please leave a $30 check ($40 for sustainers) in the box on the porch of treasurer Leslie Lowery, 2526 Valencia Terrace.
- New officers and committees: The nomination committee has completed its work. Please see the attached Word document to check your assignment. (Please let us know if there’s anything we missed.) We tried to give as many people as possible their first choices. Hopefully, there are no big surprises. Your officers for 2011/2012, voted in last Tuesday, are:
- Natalie Pulver and Michelle Crouch Smolowitz, co-presidents
- Alicia Thrasher and Ellen Yingling, 1st VPs
- Heidi Bass, 2nd VP
- Katie Rees, secretary/communications
- Leslie Lowery, treasurer
Please welcome our new neighbors (and new Garden Club members) Harriet Gatter (2401 Valencia) and Jill Jones (2545 Ainsdale, on the corner of Chevington).
