June and More

Hi all,

How time flies!!! It's June and we are about to enter our lazy days of summer. Yesterday we had our last business meeting until next September when our new board steps up to the plate. Debbie, Thank You for all of your hard work as President!!!

For those of you new to Benicia Soroptimists, we go dark, or don't meet, during July and August, that is officially. Unofficially members gather at a local park or lovely outside venue and chat and share news and updates over a brown bag lunch. Here's our schedule for June, July and August.


June 10 - Secret Pals will be revealed. All Secret Pal participants bring your final gift to the meeting.*
June 17 - Sharon Petreleese will talk about the Benicia Human Services and Arts Board.*
June 23 - Installation of new members at the Benicia Yacht Club.
* Meet at the Commandant's Residence - E.Mail Heather if you're going to have lunch.

July 2 - There was talk of meeting at the Soroptimist Grove at Matthew Turner Park. I'm told there are signs directing you there. There was also discussion of a potluck as well. I HIGHLY recommend checking with another member (see board names below) if you're not sure what to do. After this meeting folks chose a sitting area between city hall and the post office. Check with Heather if you can't find it.

Next Official Meeting September 2. Location to be announced.

Have a glorious summer. Remember our great events listed to the right. I'm off to Boston pretty much through the middle of July so will miss them and look forward to great pictures.

Warmly
Linda
