At its March meeting, a lemon auction fundraiser was held in memory of Beatrice
Ferrari, WCF member and retired FSD social studies teacher who was killed in
the tragic school bus band camp accident.
Pres. Lynda Leone and 1st VP Margaret Barrett inspired
members to purchase “treasures” they didn’t know they needed!

President Lynda Leone also reminded members that March is Women’s History Month and that
great things can be accomplished when we “move forward together.” Luncheon Committee Chair Nancy Carman and her committee, Angelina Dunlop, Jill Handley, Judith Vazquez and Judy Vilas
provided a delicious assortment of homemade desserts and refreshments displayed
among charming St. Patrick’s Day decorations and centerpieces. Thanks to Nancy’s husband, Jim, for his help with the beautiful centerpieces.

The Women’s Club of Farmingdale, a local 501-C-3 non-profit organization, is always
interested in welcoming new members. For more information, please email: lyndaleone@gmail.com or jude523@aol.com. #IAMGFWC
