The Calhoun Woman’s Club kicked off the end of the year with its Awards Luncheon at the James W. Lay House @ Oakleigh. Art students winners from local high schools were honored at the local, district and state levels for their work.

Recipients from our Boston Butt scholarship fundraiser were recognized. Keira Bryson - Gordon Central HS, Smruti Patel - Calhoun HS and Anna Betancourt - Sonoraville HS. Each student was presented with a $1000 scholarship at their awards ceremony by Michele Peoples McClelland head of the scholarship committee.

During the business meeting Amy Atkinson was presented with a Lifetime Membership Award for over 40 years of service. Several other members received pins in recognition of their service too.

New officers were inducted by a ceremony conducted by Amy Atkinson for the upcoming year.

The Calhoun Woman’s Club
held its annual Boston Butt Scholarship lunch funraiser. Our club gives a $1000 scholarship to a deserving senior from each of the local high schools. Education is expensive so every little bit helps.

Our ladies were busy buying supplies, getting our lunches together and delivering them.

Special thanks to St. Timothy's Episcopal Church - Calhoun, Georgia for allowing us to use your facilities.

Thank you to all that purchased from us, those that made donations and most of all everyone that supported us.

We are dedicated to community improvement through volunteer service.

The Calhoun Woman’s Club held its February meeting and focused on Health and Wellness. A little self care was in order for Valentine's Day. Rachel Boling and Marissa Gamble with ML Solutions, Infusions, IV Therapy & Essential Care provided information on their Galentine's Glow specials. Rachel talked about their affordable healthcare options and when oral medications are not enough infusion therapy may offer an alternative.

The Calhoun Woman’s Club enjoyed their second Spring Tea at Morning Pointe Assisted Living and Memory Care. There were plenty of finger sandwiches, various teas with cream and sugar cubes, along with assorted deserts and savory snacks to go around.

The club made rose flowered crowns with berry vines and branches for each resident to wear. When they put them on their smiles lit up the room.

We all had a special treat when one of the residents played the piano for us.

As they prepared to leave, residents made sure to take a door prize with them. It gives us joy to be able to be able to bring joy to others.
