*** RECENT POST *** December 2011 Chiapas trip Every December I lead a small group in Chiapas. Linda and I went about 5 days early so we could have a meeting with Carmen and I could make sure the trip arrangements were in place. The group this year consisted of our own Mujeres’ director Mary Norton, Pat Gritman, Sandy and Jim Reed, Yvonne Starkey, Zanna Brock and Susanne McCoy, as well as Linda and me. |
*** RECENT POST *** March 2012 Updates! Great news! We welcome Sandy Reed, our new treasurer, to our Mujeres’ Board. Sandy and her husband, Jim, traveled to Chiapas in December as part of the small group that I led. Sandy’s interest in what we do there prompted us to invite her to join with us. She accepted, and her background of teacher, bookkeeper, travel agent as well as her current membership in Soroptimist International of Sequim (our longtime supporter) will be a great asset to us. |
