Fall Chapter Meeting......

Our fall meeting and luncheon was held at Sheridan's Lodge on October 5th. We were fortunate to have several distinguished guests in attendance, who are pictured to the left: Laura Perrius (Alpha Chapter President), Dawn Flanders (Mu Chapter) Dr. Nancy Gallo from SCCC, and our state President Irene Maskaly.

While conducting business matters, we enjoyed a scrumptious lunch and a lovely view of Lake Iliff. We also inducted two new members who were unable to attend the state convention: Bonnie Sue Bastin and Suzanne Belvedere (See the Member Spotlight page of this website for more about our wonderful new sisters!).
Our meeting was concluded with a brief presentation by Lisa Hirakler, focused on the amazing life of Belle da Costa Greene, JP Morgan's librarian (recounted by author Marie Benedict), as well as other heroic women that the Epsilon book club has read about. On a personal note, Lisa disclosed her own struggle with breast cancer, reminding us that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Breast cancer survivors are modern-day heroes who inspire all women to overcome and rise above life's challenges.
Epsilon continues to grow, serve, learn and celebrate! Check out the Calendar page of this website for details on upcoming events.
