February Events

We are spreading the love for Chapter MK!!! This month at our February meeting, we were treated to a lovely dinner prepared by Robin Pearson Stanley and Debbie Carnopis. Robin then treated us again as she played a lovely piano piece, "Nocturnal," which was one of Lee's favorites. We welcome a new baby into our chapter. Jennifer O'Neill gave birth on Feb. 3rd to a little girl, 6 lb, 14 oz...;pictures to follow soon! We also had a nice turn out to the Founder's Day celebration, and are looking forward to Inspiration Day on April 10th. The cost is $22.50 and checks should be mailed to Teresa Grint no later than March 9th.

January Events

Warm Wishes to you all during this snowy time!!!!! We need some immediate responses....
Our January meeting is tomorrow at the home of Ann Mauzy with Dawn Lehr as co-hostess. If you plan on attending, please shoot me an email.
Also, we had planned a social on Jan. 16th at Starbuck's in Gladstone...BUT we just received a Founder's Day invite, which had made its way to Susan in Texas before coming to Gail. Founder's Day is Jan. 16th at 9am in Nashua (N. Oak north of 152 Hiway).
We need to decide on meeting at Starbuck's at 8:15 and going to Founder's Day, or rescheduling Starbuck's and meeting at Founder's Day.
Please email me and let me know if you would like to attend Founder's Day by Friday, Jan. 8th so we can purchase tickets. It's always a great way to reconnect and get inspiration from fellow PEO chapters, so try to make this event. We have so much to celebrate in MK, we should make attendance a chance to shine our light!!!
Hope to hear from you soon....angietolle@hotmail.com

What a remarkable young lady..and so gracious!!!
