BPW To Meet Sept 10

The Newtown Business and Professional Women’s Club will hold its first meeting of the 2001-2002 year on Monday, September 10, at the Inn at Newtown.

Guest speaker Ginger Humeston to share her message about Creative Wellspring at the meeting. Ms Humeston organized the popular Creative Wellspring program which was held as a series at the Cyrenius H. Booth Library, at the organization’s first meeting of the 2001-2002 club year. The dinner meeting will be held at the Inn at Newtown on Monday, September 10.

“The BPW mission statement this year is ‘Women in Community,’” Ms Humeston said. “I’ve seen how BPW has changed over the years. So many women now have their own businesses – often small businesses, or they work from home – which brings a sense of isolation. But the human condition longs for community.

“That’s what I like about BPW; it is community,” she said. “It answers the eternal question: How do you find the tribe where you belong?”

The BPW meeting will begin at 6 pm with a social time followed by dinner. Reservations, $20, can be made by calling Shelley Kappauf at 426-6362. Dinner choices are pasta with sausage, seafood salad, or vegetarian.
