As we begin our new fiscal year today, we want to take a moment to thank our outgoing board members and our outgoing president, Renee, for their time, leadership, and dedication to our club and the community we serve. We are grateful for all they have contributed throughout the past year!

We’re excited to welcome our new leadership team and look forward to another year of service, fellowship, and making a difference in our community.

Thank you, Renee Cox, and welcome, Janet! Here’s to a great year ahead! 🌟🤝
