 2024 WINTER PARTY DECEMBER 12

Everyone had a wonderful time at our Winter Party! Lovely Pink Poinsettias decorated the tables, and lively chatter filled the air.  Thanks, Marcia Block and Kathy Lask for your fearless leadership of this event.  Thanks also to the many committee members who helped put it all together. Thanks also to the “members” of the Elegant Edibles Society for the enticing delectables offered.  The Parkway West Jazz Choir, led by Terry Fitzpatrick, entertained with a medley of holiday songs.  Branch member, Kay Wunder, was recognized as a past director of the choir.  This event was also the kickoff of the B-C Boosters fundraising drive.  The drive contributes to our branch Operating Fund, which includes STEM Girls of Promise and St. Louis Science Fair Awards to high school young women with outstanding projects in the STEM field.

The B-C Booster forms are available on the website at 2023-4 BC Booster Form.  Bring forms to your Interest Group meetings and suggest shared sponsorship.  Send your completed form and check to Linda Roberson.  Let us keep the important work of Ballwin-Chesterfield going.
