Wednesday, February 17th, 60 MCWA women enjoyed a wonderful lunch of Herbed Grilled Salmon, Wild Mushroom Pilaf, Mixed Vegetables, Lemon Caper Buerre Blanc with Chocolate Mousse Parfait with Chocolate Dipped Strawberry for dessert. After cancelling the January luncheon in light of the increased, Covid outbreaks, we were so grateful to continue with our luncheon program.
The LaMesita room was aglow with pearl creations of all kinds, original designs, exotic pearls from the South Sea, and something for everyone. All in attendance went home with pearl stud earrings a few lucky ladies had the winning tickets for surprise pearl gifts.
Our President, Christine Matthaei, welcomed everyone with her dazzling smile. Maryann Cetti invited all to enjoy the happy and yappy hours with music on the club patio.
Cheri Keirstead was happy to report on behalf of the Community Outreach committee that because of the amazing generosity of our membership and the leverage of The Giving Circle, we have raised closed to $20,000 since August for our selected non-profits, and the funds have been distributed.
Please read the “newsworthy’ blog about the playground project for the Homeless Coalition and Emergency Services. The children have been enjoying the new safe playground equipment. Thank you to Cynthia Coombs who wrote a check at the luncheon for $300 so that the newest additions to the playground could be added to the $450 already donated for the playground project.
