Women's History Month

Since March is Women's History Month, I'd like to offer a suggestion to UBWC members to celebrate women. As you know, I'm a cast member of Diva by Diva- a Celebration of women.

Wouldn't it be a fun girls' night out to go to see this longest running production in WNY? 17 years to be Exact! So please come to: O'Connell and Company at Park School off Harlem not far from Main. Wed March 29 at 6:30 pm-Performance at 7:30pm.

Hope to see you at the theatre! Best Wishes, Marilyn Ciancio, past president

FASHION SHOW & ELECTION LUNCHEON

Saturday, April 29, 2017 at Banchetti by Rizzo's

Plan to join us for a fabulous Fashion Show and Luncheon, during which we will elect our upcoming Executive Board Slate. The Fashion Show & Election Luncheon is another of our important fund raising events. In order for this to be successful, we need help in collecting donations for our basket auction. PLEASE HELP! We welcome gift certificates from restaurants or for services, tickets, artwork, bottles of wine, and food items. Most preferred are themed baskets already made up. This raffle is not as extensive as our last event. We're looking for same quality, less quantity. Activity Groups, please consider making a donation on behalf of your group. All donations are tax deductible. Please tell donors they will receive a receipt for tax purposes. A Donation Request Letter is included in this Newsletter. You may make copies or request more. Call 807-0289 or E-mail betty.schaertel@ if you have questions, concerns or need a donation pickup. WE NEED AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

Chairpersons: Betty Schaertel and Debra Berger
