President's Letter

Dear League Members,

We are ending the year with a flurry of exciting events. For the past few months, we have focused on getting to know each other better through some League-only meetings, but now it’s time to turn open the doors to some public discussion! We will host a forum with Board of Education members in May, and in June, Senator Blumenthal will be our Annual Meeting speaker.

The Members’ Roundtable was a great way for us to engage in discussion in a personal setting, and there are a number of public policy issues that people are eager to explore. One of the great benefits of coming to League events is to interact with a diverse group of women, and get to know people that we might not otherwise in our normal patterns of life.

The League makes no demands on its members beyond its dues requirements, and some members do choose to simply support us in that way. But, for anyone looking for an involvement with interesting people and interesting issues, whether it’s on an occasional or a sustained basis, then League activities are something you should consider.

Thank you to the Board members who have so diligently given of their time to make our work function so smoothly. I am privileged to have served with such thoughtful, dynamic women.  As we look to the year ahead, if anyone is interested in working on a committee, then please let us know.

Jane Himmel
