Inside this issue:
Hello Ladies -
Hard to believe we are moving on to another club year.
Summer is almost (officially) here, and that gives us all a lot
to look forward to! We certainly are excited to get working
this year, and we hope that you share in that excitement
with us!!
We would like to extend another huge THANK YOU to
the Membership committee for organizing such a wonderful
night out for all of us at May dinner. It was a great event,
and we raised money to support one of our extremely hard-
working members, Babs Condon, as she works her way up to
being GFWC International President in 2014!!
With the start of the summer months, comes a lot of
planning for our largest fundraiser of the year – the Kid’s
Consignment Sale. This year, the sale is on Saturday, Au-
gust 25th. We are sure that the committee will begin to have
a great deal of information for us, but we hope that you can
get that date on your calendar as we need all of the helping
hands we can get!
Lastly, be sure to take a look at the 2012-2013 com-
mittee selections, which are included later in the newsletter.
We look forward to seeing you all at our next meeting on
June 14th, we will be meeting at St.
Paul’s Church in the fellowship hall
(where we met for our March meet-
ing!) Until then, take care!
Jennifer & Jess

We're gearing up for another successful Consignment Sale on
Saturday, August 25, 2012. Proceeds from this project fund
the vast majority of our projects and donations during the club
year.
BRING YOUR CALENDER TO THE JUNE MEETING!
To make the sale a success, everyone is asked to work
at minimum three shifts. There are approximately 240
worker shifts to be filled, so keep in mind that even three
shifts per club member doesn’t come close to staffing the sale.
MEN (high school age boys would be great too) and women volunteers are needed to
set up Thursday evening August 23rd. We also need everyone's help to take in and
hang clothing/equipment Friday the 24th from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Saturday the 25th
various shifts will be scheduled from 6:30 AM until 6:00 PM. Please put this on
your (and your family's) calendar now. Also, keep in mind that middle school and
high school students can earn community services hours for helping. School will not be
in session yet, so please enlist responsible students to help. Contact Meghan Jothen
ASAP to sign up to help. You can see her at the June meeting or email her at

home and hosting the dinner. A very special thank you is extended to Pam Xenakis and her culinary

Despite the heat and humidity
it was a great day to partici-
pate in the 145th Annual West-
minster Memorial Day Parade.
It was awesome to be able to
remember and honor our ser-
vice men and women of all ages
who gave their lives in service
to protect our freedom and our
rights. It was great to walk
with the GFWC Women’s Club of Westminster and the GFWC STARS Juniorette Club of West-
minster. Thanks to club members and their families who participated in the parade and distrib-
uted flags. It was a fun way to pay tribute to our armed forces!
