NAWIC Austin # 7 Newsletter

🌸 NAWIC Austin Chapter 7 Newsletter 🌸

 Welcome to Our New Members

We are excited to welcome our newest member Becky Locke to NAWIC Austin Chapter 7! Your decision to join strengthens our chapter, and we’re grateful to have you as part of this community. We look forward to officially welcoming you during our upcoming New Member Rose Ceremony.🌹

As we head into May, we want to take a moment to reflect on a fantastic April for our Austin Chapter! We had some great meetings filled with strong attendance, meaningful conversations, and valuable connections it’s always inspiring to see our members showing up and engaging.

 Our annual clay shoot was also a huge success! From the turnout to the energy, it was an incredible event that not only brought everyone together for some fun competition but also supported our chapter in a big way. Thank you to everyone who participated, sponsored, and helped make it such a memorable day.

Lastly, a reminder that chapter elections are just a few days away. We encourage everyone to participate and make your voice heard as we help shape the future of our chapter.

Looking forward to another great month ahead!

With gratitude,
Amy Rico
President, NAWIC Austin Chapter 7 💐
