They participated in the Labor Day “All City Yard Sale” raising funds for their scholarship. Meetings included presentations on “Fresh Faces of AAUW”, “The View from Mexico”, “I Was a River Guide in Alaska”, and “Women in the Civil War”. They enjoyed their traditional spring book review program on “Like Water for Chocolate”, the book selected at a branch meeting. They honored the recipient of their $1000 scholarship at the December Dinner meeting and will close their year with their traditional “Progressive Potluck” meeting. “AAUW at the Movies” is their new feature this year. Members were invited to showings of “Real Women Have Curves”, “Iron Jawed Angels” and “Like Water for Chocolate” (after the book review). Everyone pitches in at their annual book sale which raises most of their funds for donations and scholarships. Last update May 3, 2008 |
