This month's President's Message
Dear Friends,
78 members and guests gathered together at the beautiful Domaine de Fondespierre in Castries last month to celebrate Thanksgiving. Two 30-pound turkeys and a plethora of homemade side dishes and desserts graced a long buffet table. Thank you to everyone who made possible this, our signature annual event. If you couldn’t be with us, we missed you! See the photos in this newsletter.
605 euros were raised through the Thanksgiving raffle for FAWCO charitable projects around the world supporting women and children, compared to last year's 476 euros. Noel Gaussens did a magnificent job of organizing and hosting the raffle. Thank you to everyone who provided raffle prizes and purchased tickets.
Please mark your calendar for Sunday January 19th, 3:00 pm, at the Espace Jacques 1er d’Aragon on the ground floor for our annual Galette Party to ring in the new year along with a presentation about the work of FAWCO and the role our club plays in it. Watch for an Evite in your email in January.
Warmest wishes to you and your family this holiday season and in the new year,
Jennifer Hodge Jerzyk
2024-25, President AWGLR
