WHERE:      MADERA BALLROOM
TIME:           6:30 p.m.

Please join us and bring your friends and neighbors. Update 5/1/2019: Scholarship Program photos by Eileen Sykora.


MILITARY BABY SHOWER

The Baby Shower is just three weeks away. We have 27 moms and 29 babies (2 sets of twins). The committee will be wrapping up soon however if you are interested in donating items or making a monetary donation, there is still a box at the Anza Athletic Center, the Madera Clubhouse Lobby, and at Kathi Krieg’s home (2680 E. Sawyer Road).

Many thanks to those in our community who have donated items, cash, or their volunteer time. And a special thank-you to the residents of Unit 31 who collectively donated 4,678 diapers at a recent unit party.


ANNOUNCING …

The Executive Board is excited to announce two appointments.
Cindy Mayron will fill the position of Publicity Chair currently occupied by JoAnn Haberer. Cindy’s duties will commence May 1st. Becky Ashin will fill the position of Membership Chair currently held by Angie Werner. Becky will begin July 1st. WELCOME!!

We are jubilant about sending our very best wishes to Angie Werner and Jack Davis for a happy marriage and extended honeymoon in Mexico. Angie wants everyone to know that she is officially a sunbird! She and Jack will be leaving in December. It is a comfort to know that both JoAnn and Angie will be back in Quail Creek when the snowbirds fly and the sunbirds retreat. Best wishes, ladies!


MARK YOUR CALENDAR: October 19, 2019

It’s time again, as you clean out those closets, to think about donating to TWOQC 2019 VA Homeless Clothing and Household Goods Drive. This drive supports the needs of the VA Homeless Services.

This year, as per their request, we will be collecting ONLY MEN’S FALL AND WINTER CLOTHING AND HOUSEHOLD ITEMS. So, please bag them up and hang onto those for us until October! All women’s clothing and men’s summer clothing can be taken to our wonderful local charities now.

Your donations are greatly appreciated and tax receipts will be available at the event. Direct your questions to clothingdrive@womenqc.com.


2019 is a Grand Year to Join TWOQC

We have so much fun planned as we continue celebrating our 15th Anniversary. Welcome 2019’s newest members when you see them at our programs and luncheons.

Sandy Dinnocenti, Susie Eckhardt, Carol Ann Fougere, Cathy Gilmore, Pat Holmes, Dorothy Lehmkuhl, Trisha Manske, Deka Peters, Marsha Royer, and Marilyn Watt

Would you like to be the first friendly face our members see when they arrive at the May 20, 6:30 program featuring YOTO Ambassadors’ presentation? We are looking for your help as we hand out name tags, sign guests in and urge our ladies to get their name in the basket for the door prizes drawing. If you can help on Monday, May 20 at 6:00 please contact Angie Werner at membership@womenqc.com.


Member Spotlight: KAREN BAKER

Karen was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba but became a naturalized U.S. citizen when her parents moved to California in the late 1950s. Her background is in food science and nutrition. During her career, Karen worked in California as a registered dietitian doing both clinical hospital and food industry work. She worked at Dole (Castle and Cooke) after grad school, developing food products and conducting consumer market research tests.

Karen and her husband, Harold, have been married for thirty-eight years. They moved here from San Ramon, California where they both worked at the Clorox Company as scientists. Karen was a Project Leader in their foods division, helping to develop various flavors of Hidden Valley Ranch salad dressing and KC Masterpiece BBQ sauce. She says her big claim to fame is the Ranch with Bacon dressing. PHOTO: KAREN & HAROLD

CONNECTING WITH OUR COMMUNITY

Semi-Annual Food Bank Collection April 29

On your way to the Scholarship program, consider making a contribution to the Semi- Annual food drive. Bins will be available in the hallway outside the Madera Ballroom.

The most requested items are peanut butter, cereal, and paper products. Also needed are non-perishable foods, cleaning & hygiene items.

Winter residents may wish to check the expiration dates of items in their pantries. Consider donating items that will expire before their return. Cash/check/credit card/gift card donations are also greatly appreciated. If donating cash, contact Peggy McGee at 207-6188 in lieu of leaving cash in one of the bins.

Homeless and Hospitalized Veterans

Because of scholarship awards, please do not bring donations for the VA to Monday’s program. Rather drop them at Peggy McGee’s house, 1908 E Longspur Place, 4th house up from the waterfall.
