WEN Susquehanna Valley: 2023 Annual Meeting

Event Details

Annual Membership Meeting, Networking and a Speaker

Sign up today for the Susquehanna Valley WEN Chapter Annual Membership Meeting. Join us for cocktails, networking, chapter news, and the election of new officers. Please come vote for our new leaders. Also, we are very excited that Dr. Richard Dowell will be our featured speaker during this annual meeting.

We will be raising funds for Camp Victory. Please consider donating to the camp to fulfill their holiday wish list. Camp Victory is a special camp for special kids. Camp Victory offers the camp experience to children otherwise denied it because of limitations imposed by a chronic or catastrophic health problem, or physical or developmental challenges. Meeting and interacting with other children who share their problems and fears helps each of them come to terms with their limitations and builds self-esteem necessary to function fully in society at large.

Donation and sponsorship options are available, please select the REGISTER tab to view the various levels. We would appreciate your support of our chapter.
