Thank you to Jen and Theresa...
We'd like to thank Jen Stahl and Theresa Muth for 3+ years of amazing leadership service - above and beyond the call of duty!
Jen has been an active member pretty much since the chapter started, over 5 years ago, and thru her very active involvement in various holistic groups has helped maintain and grow the chapter, even with 3 children to raise as well. She has been our go-to person in every aspect of running this chapter and her knowledge and wisdom will be sorely missed. She most recently took on a local political/holistic issue and her courage and strength really reflected her passion as a holistic mom. It also made her realize what she was called to do and is now pursuing a career in helping others in this field.
Theresa has also been an active member for almost 4 years and helped greatly in the marketing aspect of our chapter. You may have seen her smiling face at the many events in which we set up a booth. Theresa has always been there, rain or shine, usually with one or more of her 3 wonderful kids. Luckily she will continue to help out with these events but the needs of family and work have finally pulled her away from her leadership role.
These amazing, holistic mothers of 3 have given so much of their time, love and friendship to this chapter and we cannot find enough words of gratitude for all you have done. We truly hope you continue to grace us with your presence/knowledge as much as you can but wish you all the best with your new endeavors and thank you again for all you have done!
With lots of love,
The Leadership Team
Reminder about our next meeting...
Reminder that our next meeting is Tuesday June 4th and the topic is Kids and Money: "Let's talk about how early to introduce your kids to money, why bother, and different approaches to "allowance". We would love to welcome all parents/caregivers to attend as this is a family decision and can be a point of contention. Heather DeGeorge will facilitate using her own research to help answer questions and offer guidance on what she feels is a topic worth discussing for our kids futures."
