WCC has had an amazing year! Lectures on human trafficking, tax laws, GRCF, neonatal intensive care, storytelling, seminary surviving, women running for office, GVSU facility planning, GR freeway history, women in Islam, Brexit, MomsBloom, native plants and pollinators, women’s health using Chinese medicine, time spent with artists, travels in Central Asia, Days for Girls, GR and the Holocaust, 49er family stories, and one more to come in December on Bitcoin.
We traveled to Meijer Gardens and Blandford, had book talks by Marty Arnold, Roger Gilles, Hank Meijer, and Christine Olson, classes on exercise and cooking, and music by Becky Sneller, June Nelson, Elizabeth Barry, Todd Wilke, and the Heart Strings Quartet. Fashion shows by Blackbird East, Kimberly’s Boutique, Robinette’s, Boutique Emmanuel and The James have been so popular and fun! We’ve had Have Your Say Day and Let’s Do Lunch, Friday Dinner, a cultural experience at Charcoal Brazilian Grill in Holland, End of Season Grill Party, and we’re looking forward to a fabulous time at the Evergreen Gala!
In addition to all of that we have weekly Mah Jongg, Tuesday Social Time all around town, $2 Bucks Tuesday Coffee Time, Book Club, awarded our first Hazel Whitaker Vandenberg Award, and support three wonderful organizations through our Community Outreach. WOW! We’re the best kept secret in Grand Rapids, one organization with countless opportunities! The best part is the friendships we make in the community we’re a part of. Thank you to all Women’s City Club members for making this happen! Spread the word!
