June 2022 Happenings

We are pleased to share the launch of our Magnolia Soap fundraiser beginning June 11 and running through June 25. We are hoping to have a lot of success with this fundraiser for the good of all of our P.E.O. projects. Carla Strayhorn and her son, have offered their Airbnb for one night as an additional incentive with the purchase of the amazing products offered by Magnolia Soap. Details are being worked to share at our next business meeting. However, we are going to bring the fundraising opportunity to Reciprocity!

North Alabama Reciprocity is gearing up again. Reciprocity is a gathering of all North Alabama P.E.O. Chapters. Our first meeting will be Saturday, June 11 in Huntsville. We will plan to carpool. We rsvp’d five tickets, which have been claimed. However, additional tickets can be requested this week through the hosting chapter. Reach out to Sondra for more details. Tickets are $20 which covers lunch and a program on Cottey College. If you have never attended a reciprocity event, you are in for a great time.

Please join us for the return of our monthly luncheson the third Tuesday of each month beginning at 11:30.
