Old Mission Women’s Club is back in the swing of things! We had our first meeting of the new season today (we meet from fall through spring), enjoyed a lavish luncheon at the Hagerty Center (they do such a great job), and I love getting Mom out to the meetings (she’s been a member of the club since 1960, and was president from 1975 to 1977).
I’m not allowed to take photos of the club members (some of them tend to shy away from social media, which I totally understand), but I don’t think they’ll mind if I post a photo of this lovely centerpiece at the meeting. Ever the charitable organization, all of these “living” centerpieces were donated to Father Fred after the meeting.
Way to go, Ladies. Proud to be a member since 2007 and will do my best to carry on Mom’s heritage.
