Women's Board of Lake Erie Nature & Science Center off to a great start

The Women's Board of Lake Erie Nature & Science Center kicked off our 2016-2017 with our first meeting on Sept. 7.  Catherine Timko, the Center's executive director, welcomed members and guests. She highlighted the Center's summer camps, the Summer Wildlife Reading Camp, and the recent cosmetic improvements at the Center. New paint and carpeting has brightened the interior. Wonderful programs are available for children and adults.

Please save the date now for our fundraiser, Sunday, Dec. 11, at Clague Playhouse. Women's Board will sponsor the play "Plaid Tidings," the holiday version of "Forever Plaid." The fun starts at 1:00 p.m. with refreshments, followed by a 2 p.m. matinee. Invite a friend to join you, take a break, and enjoy an afternoon of holiday entertainment. Tickets are $25 each and available from Dixie, 440-933-4461 and Karen, 440-670-6760. All proceeds benefit Lake Erie Nature & Science Center.
