Junior League Annual Conference ~ April 23-25th


The power of three!
As the incoming president of the JLGWH, I had the opportunity to attend annual conference in Atlanta with two of my best girls! Leslie, Jennifer and I flew out of Orlando - with a little bit of drama "Leslie style"... let's just say after a missing cell phone, boarding pass and almost flight - Leslie boarded the plane and we were off to Atlanta!

Us all dressed up for the big dinner... with our friend, Pam Edwards~President of Tallahassee League.

We networked with women from all over the country and attended workshops about leadership, governance and building our community! We are so appreciative of the league sending us to conference this year and I am certain that the investment will payoff!
At the Inman Park Street Festival...

We had a great time - bonding, sharing stories and making memories! I love these girls and feel so lucky to call them my friends!

JLGWH Casino Night~~ March 7th, 2009

The JLGWH hosted a Casino Night Fundraiser on March 7th - the evening included a poker tournament, bunko, blackjack and lots of fun!! The event raised over $10,000 for the league's community projects!

The Junior Leagues of Florida State Public Affairs Conference



On Sunday, Leslie Heimer, JLGWH President and I attended the SPAC summer conference in Orlando. We along with several other ladies from leagues all over the state listen to and address issues that face our members statewide... The Junior League of Greater Winter Haven is a new member of SPAC and I am thrilled about our involvement. As president-elect, I officially serve as this year's delegate.
The Junior Leagues of Florida State Public Affairs Committee has been the advocacy arm of the Junior Leagues of Florida for over 30 years, monitoring the state legislative process and addressing issues of political importance to the members of the Junior Leagues.
