What You Should Know:
The board is evaluating this calendar to shape the upcoming League year. The meeting topics are based on feedback garnered at the Program Planning Brunch in January 2009.
If you notice a conflict, please let us know. In the meantime, we hope you will plan on attending!
The League board will vote on this calendar at is August Board meeting. Feel free to contact any League member you know if you'd like to suggest a topic for discussion at a League Unit Meeting!
Why You Should Care:
The League works to be thoughtful of issues that affect the community - locally, nationally, and globally. Leaguers study myriad issues, but we only have 6-9 Unit meetings. As a volunteer organization, we can only study and present on a few topics per year, so we strive to find topics that we feel are timely and important for the community to be aware of. Your feedback is always welcome. Email us: info@lwvge.org
