President's Message

Pauliine

Hi Ladies,

I hope that we are all staying safe and well in our confinement and finding ways to keep up with our friends. This is a very strange time we are experiencing. However, it has introduced us to social connecting through apps like ZOOM, Skype, and FaceTime to name a few.

This virus has also changed the way we had to vote for our new slate of officers. Normally we vote in person at the April membership luncheon. We are happy to announce that our results from online voting have been quite successful. For those who chose to participate, we had a unanimous vote “yes”. Our board will be discussing how to move forward for future surveys. The online voting does allow for the entire club to vote if they so choose. We had a substantial higher number of votes than we would have had at a luncheon.

I know we will be so happy to see each other again and even more appreciative of our NFC friendships and fun activities.

Mickey
