Club News and Notes – April 2026

From the President

We are quickly moving toward the end of our club year, and we still have a lot of club business and activities to do before the summer.

At the April meeting, we will be voting on the new club Executive Board, which will carry us into the 2026-2027. As you all know, our Executive Board positions may be held for two years, so there is also the possibility that each new Board member will remain in their position for the 2027-2028 club year.

The current slate of Officers that we will be voting on is as follows:
• President: Celeste Corrigan
• 1st Vice President: Donne’ Howell
• 2nd Vice President: Mary Ellen Murphy
• Treasurer: Barb Garland
• Recording Secretary: Elizabeth Laverty
• Corresponding Secretary: Diane Lewan

A big thank-you to the DWC members listed above who agreed to be on the Executive Board slate. We will also ask for nominations from the floor at the April meeting, so it’s not too late to add your name to the slate. However, if you plan to nominate a fellow member, please ensure that that member is willing to hold a Board position.

At the May meeting, we will officially install the new Executive Board, and the Battlefield High School scholarship winner will read her application. We will also have a buffet dinner consisting of items from Wegman’s, which will include gluten-free and vegan options. The cost per person is $30 cash/check or $32 for electronic payments via PayPal and Venmo. We will collect payments at the April meeting, at the door at the May meeting, or you can mail a check to the Post Office box. Please RSVP by May 13th so we can plan our table setup for the dinner.

I hope you can all get out and enjoy our nice weather.
