The October 10 meeting of the Bellows Falls Woman's Club will be held at the United Church, School St. beginning at noon. The Executive Board members will serve a luncheon of soup, sandwiches, dessert, and beverages. A donation of $5 is requested. A presentation on Fit Body Forever will be given by Lisa Dumont and Sarah Manning.
At the September 12 meeting of the club, Dr. Walter Griffiths spoke about women's heart health, citing statistics on the topic and offering suggestions for making healthy choices to help prevent poor heart health. Five women joined the club at the meeting. During the business meeting, led by President Dianne Potter, the budget was approved. It includes many monetary donations to be made in support of area, and beyond, organizations and agencies. Members voted to support a diaper project being established to meet this specific need of families affected by the devastation of the recent hurricanes. Plans for the club year were outlined, including the first fund raiser to support the club's scholarship fund. A food and bake sale will be held on October 28 in conjunction with the Walpole Library's annual book sale at the Walpole Middle School. Details about the food sale will be discussed at the Oct. meeting. Area women interested in joining the club and helping with its projects may call Barbara Comtois, Membership Chairman, at 802-344-0025. The Bellows Falls Woman's Club is a member of the General Federation of Women's Clubs whose signature project is domestic violence awareness and prevention. Two local club members attended the recent state federation meeting hosted by the Castleton Woman's Club. Thank you. Betty Haggerty
