Dear fellow MWC members –  There are so many events and activities coming up that one newsletter this month just wasn't enough! This bonus issue is filled with details on upcoming university visits and a member Skills and Interests Survey that will help us all re-engage. With our Eagle Award Celebration just two weeks away, it's an exciting time for our chapter. Read on to make sure you don't miss a thing! Best regards, ARCS/MWC Communications

upcoming event highlights

member survey

It’s wonderful to re-engage after a few years of covid and “zoom” meetings. New members have joined, and existing members' skills have grown and interests may have changed.  Members of the Nominating Committee would like to get to know everyone better. We also are soliciting nominations for Board leadership positions and for members of the multiple councils. Click here by March 24 to fill out our Skills and Interests Survey, if you didn't fill out the paper version during our Feb 29 membership meeting. It should take about 5 minutes to complete. This will help us get to know you; your hobbies, your skills and your interests. Thank you, and we look forward to hearing from you! - The MWC Nominating Committee  Neela Babu, Michelle Bailey, Kristen Bloschock, Lynn Dillon, Julie Hohl, Karen Magley, Patty Sparrell and Susan Trice
