There is a waiting list if you haven’t yet purchased a ticket. Also, the event Chairs have assured us that anyone is welcome to participate in the silent auction and 50/50 raffle drawing. Just mosey down to the Madera Clubhouse on February 25th at 10:30.Ā More details will unfold as we get closer to the event.

If you plan to play, brush up on your poker skills (compliments of Doug Mutter):

  • Stud Poker
  • Texas Holdem
  • Doug’s Bronco Poker Hand Values

Tickets are available by visiting our website at womenqc.com and clicking on the ā€œhand of cardsā€ in the right margin or you may purchase in person at our program Monday morning.


MEMBER’S CORNER

Do you see a beautiful lady with a pink name tag? She is one of our new members! Please introduce yourself and invite her to sit with you at Monday’s program. Since September we’ve welcomed 60 new friends to TWOQC. Making new friends is what Quail Creek is all about and is especially dear to us as The Women of Quail Creek. We are all the ambassadors of our warm and welcoming club as well as our community. Your hospitality and kindness leaves a lasting impression with all our members and guests.

Welcome to our newest members: Carole Ann Fougere, Pat Holmes, Dorothy Lehmkuhl. We are so happy to have you join us!

The lecture is co-sponsored by TWOQC Scholarship Committee and the Quail Creek Education Committee.Ā Tickets are $5 by check at the Concierge Desk or check/cash at the door.Ā Tickets will be available before TWOQC January 28th program.Ā All proceeds benefit the scholarship fund for graduating senior girls and women in transition.


Baby Shower Committee: GEARING UP FOR MAY

The Baby Shower Committee is gearing up for the Military Families event slated for Saturday, May 18th. The excitement begins with having 8 babies so far. A donation box will be at the front door of Kathi Krieg’s house (2680 E Sawyer Road) starting January 31st. Watch upcoming Friday Morning Messages for information when a donation box will be placed in the Madera Clubhouse lobby and for a list of items needed to help fill the gift baskets.


šŸ†•COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS

Homeless and Hospitalized Veterans

If you traveled over the holidays and brought home unopened travel sized toiletries, they will be perfect for the homeless veterans who go to the VA for a shower. Any leftover disposable utensils, plates and cups will be put to good use for walk-in clients. 2019 calendars are still needed as are puzzle books for the hospitalized veterans. Please place all items on the table at the rear of the ballroom at Monday’s program.

Honor Flight

It is time to write our notes of thanks to veterans for their service. Please begin writing notes for the veterans going to Washington DC April 23-24th. There will be 55 participating in the special flight. One letter or note will do as Kay Robinson has generously offered to make copies. Letters should be folded and sealed with one sticker each. Ideas for beginning the notes can be found HERE. Bring your notes to The Women of Quail Creek meeting January 28th or to 898 N Kenneth Drive by April 8th. Your tribute will remind those who served that they have not been forgotten.
