Message from your President:

I hope you're joining us for Thanksgiving Lunch at Winchester on the 20th of November. Stephanie Stark, our CFWC Area D Vice President will be joining us with news and plans for the 2017-2018 year. Also, our guest speaker will be Bob Palmer, our good friend and advisor for our De Anza Parliamentary Group. Bob is on his third term as President of the Riverside Society of Parliamentarians which was founded in 1986 and is currently ALMOST the only Roberts Rules of Order study group in Southern California (other than the Woman's Club). A 44 year member of Toastmasters, he has been District Parliamentarian several times in the past several years. Recently retired from elementary school teaching in May, and he even had his fourth graders doing Parliamentary Procedure! We'll have some fun with his presentation! As you know, this is an election year. Our District clubs have received information for those who may be interested in running for an elective office for two years on the District Board of Directors. I encourage you to consider this

opportunity. It is a most rewarding to be able to work with other members in your District as well as experiencing a pride of service. We'll also be introducing our wonderful De Anza District Fundraiser. More news to follow!! Come have some turkey and cranberry sauce with your Winchester and other District sisters. Always in Federation,

Yours in Federation, Jan
