Lake County Women’s Club celebrates 101st anniversary
The Lake County Women’s Civic Club celebrated its 101st anniversary on Friday, March 4 at the monthly meeting held at Riviera Hills Country Club. Over 40 women came together to celebrate this accomplishment. There was a beautiful cake provided by Riviera Hills Country Club to kick off the birthday celebration. “Kevin and his team have gone above and beyond for this club for years and this was extra special to be presented with the beautiful 101st Birthday Cake” – “It is nice to be able to celebrate our birthday all month long, after not being able to do something in person last year” -a LCWCC Club member stated.
The Lake County Women’s Civic Club is committed to giving back to Lake County for years to come. They will be hosting their Mad Hatter Luncheon on April 23 at Boatique Winery. Help make the 101st year of service a success by purchasing tickets or providing a donation item. Contact Kerry Moore at 707-364-6165 for more information.
