LUNCHEONS

WOW monthly luncheons are held in area restaurants and country clubs, usually on the 3rd Thursday of the month from September through May. The front page of the newletter will always have the information you need to participate.
We usually arrive at 11:00, socialize, get our 50/50 tickets, pick our seats, and then have our meeting. Usually lasting about 20 minutes, the meeting keeps us up to date on our activities, charity events, birthdays, visitors, new members, and finances.
Following a delicious lunch eaten with friendly companions, there is a short program. In the past we have had various speakers, fashion shows, and demonstrations. Please send any ideas you have for a program to our VP in charge of luncheons, Jennie Reagan.

LUNCHEON/MEETING RECAP FOR 2023 - 2024

WOW held  monthly Meetings/Luncheons September through May with an average attendance of 46 members- an increase over the prior year.  We also saw an increase in electronic payments (Zelle and Venmo) and we hope to continue payments directly to the WOW account next year.

The 9 Meeting/Luncheons focused on fun and friendship while trying some new venues and programs.

 WOW Meeting/Luncheons do not take place during the summer months of June, July and August. 

Jennie Reagan is the new 1st VP and she has already started organizing the venues and programs for September 2024 through May 2025. Jennie is open to venue and program suggestions so email her at GrandmasKids06@icloud.com with your ideas. Please keep in mind restaurants need to have a separate room that can accommodate 40-60 ladies, offer an all inclusive meal at a reasonable cost, have or accommodate a microphone and optimally agree to the book, puzzle and jewelry table sales. Programs are best when less than 30 minutes, no or reasonable cost and interesting/fun. 

Please remember to send out the WOW Keep in Touch card that you received at the May luncheon. These can go out any time during the summer just to say hi and let the recipient know what you’ve been up to.
