Committee on Women’s Activities

It sure seems like the leaves started changing colors early this year. Our CWA Conference went very well. I heard many positive comments.

We have two new members on our committee. Welcome, Judy Meserve and Kathy Ward. Kathy helped present a demonstration on mosaic art. We all got to make something. I think everyone enjoyed doing this.
