It's snowy out there....

Hey all. Wow. Are ready for spring or what???? The weather has not kept Chapter MK down, though. In January, several members attended Founder's Day. What a great time to connect with PEO sisters from around the region. Last week, we had a coffee social at Panera. It was great to see so many of our newer members there...and baby Reagan!!!! We are hoping our meeting Feb. 3rd does not get cancelled due to weather...Robin is planning a meal for us, and we love it when Robin treats us to her culinary delights!!! Last weekend, President Gail Martin participated in Polar Plunge, a fundraiser for Special Olympics. She bravely plunged into icy water...something she wanted to check off of her "40 things to do when I'm 40" list..congrats, Gail. We are still praying for the healing of Jane Saari's son as he battles cancer. Member Angie Perkins is pregnant with her 2nd child. We are excited to have initiated two new members: Catherine Wood and Doreen Disbrow. We hope to see more members at meetings in 2011!!! Officer elections are just around the corner, so please consider devoting your time. We will need a president, as Gail has stepped in after Susan moved to Texas. We will also need a new Recording Secretary and several other committments from members. See you soon...stay warm!!!!
