We hold fund-raisers each year (including the Community Day Sale Booklets for Younkers) which fund two scholarships offered yearly – one for a traditional female student and one for a nontraditional female student. We also support our community, including sponsoring the Cranberry Blossom Festival and craft fair.
We meet once per month, the second Monday,from September through May – Check out our calendar to get the details on our next meeting or event!
