Highlights and Notes
President’s message
April 2024
Welcome to April and a busy month for AAUW Tillamook. First of all, thank you to everyone who is working behind the scenes to keep our branch activities and administration moving. Here are a few activities underway for April.
- Thank you to our scholarship committee who will be reviewing scholarships later this month for our University scholarships.
- High school STEM award nominees have been received and arrangements made with the high schools to present the awards at their award ceremonies in May.
- Thank you to our governance committee who is working hard on our bylaw updates so we are in compliance with state and national requirements.
- Lisa Phipps has planned a Candidate Forum for us for April 21.
- We printed a brand new AAUW Tillamook branch brochure that will be available at the candidate forum.
All of these things have many moving pieces, and it takes all of us working together to get everything done. So, thank you a million to everyone who is pitching in. We do not have a meeting in April due to the Candidate Forum, but I would like to say thank you to Kathy Gervasi, Sydney Elliott, and Carol Iwaniw, who put on an informative and fabulously performed readers theater in March for Women’s History Month. I hope to see you all at the Candidate Forum and in May when we have our next meeting.
