Hello Everyone!
Happy Spring!
Special thanks to all the ladies in the Colchester Club for hosting the March CFDW meeting. The traditional corned beef and cabbage was delicious and put us all in the mood to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day and the Wearin’ of the Green. Thanks also to State Representative Linda Orange for her legislative overview of what we can expect from this session. We all know how difficult the state budget process is and her comments were quite informative.
The Cheshire Democratic Women’s Club is hosting the April meeting and I’m sure the meal will be delicious. Please note that the April meeting will be held on April 15th, so finish up your taxes early and plan to join us for the evening. Directions to the Manor Inn are attached. The contact person for the meeting is Patti Flynn-Harris, Club President. Hope to see you there!
Also, please mark your calendars for the Bienniel CFDW Workshop to be held on Sunday, May 16, 2010 at the Marlbourough Tavern. This will be a luncheon meeting and we’re hoping for a good turnout. Liz Duarte is in charge of the program and has already lined up guest speakers to discuss how we can improve ways to use technology and the internet to get our Democratic message out. It promises to be an exciting day!. Karen Romero, President of the Colchester Club has agreed to organize and solicit quality items and/or baskets for a raffle. Each club will be asked to donate a raffle item, much like what we had for the Eastern Regional meeting in November, 2008. We’ll need the support of all of you to make this workshop a success.
Club Presidents, please get the word out to your members about the workshop meeting and the monthly meeting on April 15th. Also, if you wish to provide me with email addresses of your club members and interested Democrats, I’ll be glad to add them to my contact list for CFDW.
Hope to see you on April 15th!
Joanne LeBeau, President, CFDW
