September Program

m-valenzuela_sept2016Dr. Manuel Valenzuela, Superintendent of the Sahuarita Unified School District (SUSD), now in his seventh year as district Superintendent, oversees the education of 6,300 students in the rapidly growing K-12 district.

Dr. Valenzuela’s talk  on September 26 will focus on issues and solutions in the on-going struggle to provide the students in the Sahuarita Unified School District with the best skills for success. He will talk about emerging issues and provide details about local challenges. 

In addition to Dr. Valenzuela’s talk, TWOQC will be entertained by the Walden Grove High School Women’s Chorale under the direction of Benjamin Lebovitz. The Chorale is composed of 16 members, the majority of whom are freshmen and sophomores, ages 14 to 16.

The program will begin at 6:30 p.m. and is open to all members of TWOQC and to first time guests. Members are encouraged to arrive early to make reservations for the Club’s October Membership Luncheon. Tickets for the October 31 luncheon are $10 for members and $20 for guests.

Clothing & Household Goods Drive for Homeless Veterans

2016 Homeless Vets clothing drive _ twoqc 722.16With our cooler mornings and evenings, as you start to dig out your fall clothing, please consider donating anything you and/or your spouse no longer need/want to our clothing drive on October 15 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. Items must be cleaned and in good repair. Socks and underwear must be new. Because there are no women in the VA Homeless program who wear size small or medium, any women’s clothing in those sizes will be donated to Genesis House for victims of domestic violence or Youth on Their Own (YOTO) for homeless teens in the local area. Please keep these sizes separated from your other donations if possible.

We will be signing up volunteers to help with the clothing drive at our September 26 program. If you won’t be at the program, please contact Laura Colbert at 625-4033 to sign up. We could definitely use some male volunteers for the heavier boxes and bags.

Thanks to all who have donated boxes. We now have all we need.
