May 7, 2023 Woman’s Club House Tour Charity Fundraiser, A Big Success!
Enjoying perfect spring weather, more than 400 Lake Barcroft residents and friends toured the six houses, socialized along the way, and relaxed over refreshments at the “rest stop”.
A HUGE THANK YOU to every Lake Barcroft resident and friend who bought tickets and made donations to support this year’s Woman’s Club charities! A total of $13,995 was distributed to the five selected charities and one Lake Barcroft community service project:
• 90% was distributed equally to Culmore Clinic, New Hope Housing, and Second Story
• 10% was distributed equally to Save the Swift Island Trees, The Lamb Center, and The Campagna Center.
The Woman’s Club May 7th House Tour Charity Fundraiser – our first since 2019 – was a big success due to your contributions and the more than 70 Woman’s Club members and non-members who helped make the House Tour fundraiser event happen!
The primary mission of the Woman’s Club is charitable – to raise funds to support local charities. We would not have had such a great House Tour event without your involvement and support. THANK YOU!!!!
And finally, congratulations to Lake Barcroft resident Ginette Hemley who had the winning ticket for the cash raffle prize drawn at the May 22nd Woman’s Club Spring Membership Meeting!
EASTER EGG HUNT
Saturday, April 8, 2023, 11 a.m. at Beach 5
A BIG THANK YOU to all the kids and parents who came out to the April 8 Woman’s Club Easter Egg Hunt! Every corner of Beach 5 was filled with excited kids with baskets for egg hunting and lots of cute bunny ears!
About 2,500 eggs were placed in the sand, grasses, trees, etc. and nearly all were found, including the four Golden Eggs. And - to add to the fun - the Easter Bunny made an appearance. It was truly a joyous occasion, and turn-out was fantastic!
MANY, MANY THANKS to Easter Egg Hunt organizer Jeannie Meyer, her family members, annual helper Susie Scott, two Justice High School volunteers, and the 13 Woman’s Club Community Events team members who hid eggs, directed kids, and made sure all the little ones found eggs.
