Hi Everyone!

I hope you all enjoyed attending the Fall Board Meeting in the Sault. I was unable to attend due to family health issues. This is such a great time for all of us to get together and discuss new ideas and get revitalized with new energy. I really missed being there this year.

One of the things I wanted to talk about at the meeting was membership. Membership is declining across the state. This not only impacts our budget, but also impacts our influence in our communities and in the state. I hope that each local can continue to promote BPW as a vital part of promoting women’s issues in all areas. Let’s share our knowledge and enthusiasm with every woman we have contact with. Invite all women to join. Together we can make a difference.
