Carol Dodge and Marcie signing Our First One Hundred Years
We celebrated a momentous event on March 14 at the Grand Rapids Public Museum. The tale was told of 100 years of the Women’s City Club by Club Historian Carol Dodge and Bulletin editor Marcie Woods at a program in the Museum’s Meijer Theater.
Our book, Our First One Hundred Years, authored by Carol and Marcie, was for sale and a book signing followed the presentation. WCC favorite, the Honorable Judge Sara Smolenski, was our special guest host. Carol and Marcie alternated in the telling of our story by decade beginning with our founding in 1924. Each decade was introduced by songs of the era performed by Rebecca Sneller, pianist and WCC member.
Complimentary hors d’oeuvres and dessert and a cash bar were available. Thank you to the Public Museum for the wonderful space and for taping the presentation as part of your GR Stories feature.
