Best Foot Forward: Empowering Women of All Ages

Women in Bucks and Montgomery Counties are encouraged to attend Best Foot Forward an evening of empowerment, enrichment, education and FUN.

Best Foot Forward: Empowering Women of ALL AGES is an event designed to empower women and girls (middle school and up) to live their best life and to put their best foot forward.

This event is presented by Perkasie Borough and Perkasie-based non-profit, Sisters U®. It will be held on April 2nd from 6pm – 9pm at the Bucks County Community College, Upper Bucks Campus, One Hillendale Rd, Perkasie, 18944.

Eight time Emmy Award winner, former WCAU-TV newscaster, and author, LuAnn Cahn will dare attendees to face their fears and to put their “best foot forward” in an inspiring and entertaining keynote session. LuAnn became a fear-facer when she took on a new challenge every day for a year. Signed copies of Lu Ann’s fresh, funny memoir will be on sale at the event. LuAnn’s appearance is sponsored by A&T Chevrolet-Subaru, who will also be on hand to help demystify car maintenance.
