Letter from Our President


We are moving into my most favorite time of the year…. the holidays! Given Thanksgiving will be here in a few short weeks, it is a perfect time to reflect on the abundance of gifts God or the universe has bestowed on us. I know I am grateful for my husband Kevin, who is my best friend and partner in every way. I am thankful for my fantastic step kids- Shannon and Brendan who are healthy and generally well-adjusted despite my parenting! I am grateful for my fur monsters and their ever-vigilant surveillance of our home. In that list of gratitude, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention how appreciative I am of our special village and the circle of friends that I have developed through the Women’s Club of Great Falls. I can not repeat it enough, if you are new to the area or feel disconnected from the community, the Women’s Club offers so many ways to connect and find your tribe. The Women’s Club sponsors so many cool events. Last month, we enjoyed our monthly meeting under the stars spearheaded by Meghan Ratigan but there were also wine tastings, luncheons, book clubs, girl’s nights out, bridge games and tea parties, just to name a few. There is something for everyone and every schedule, however, you need to get involved to meet your tribe. I urge you to participate in several of our very cool events and don’t be afraid to come alone. There is always a mix of new and old members.  

The November calendar is packed with interesting events. Tomorrow, November 2nd, we have our November Harvest themed cocktail party graciously hosted by Kary and Ken Ryan. A few tickets are still available. 

 Our all-club monthly meeting will be held on November 8th at 11 am.  Ararity Services, an Alexandria based auction house will speak to us on appraising items of value in your home. They have generously volunteered to provide estimates of values for a few lucky ladies. So, bring Aunt Lily’s Cameo or a sample of your grandmother’s fine China to see if you have an unexpected windfall. Afterwards, we will enjoy Riverbend’s delicious tea service! 

Later in the month, we have Anita McBride a co-author of Remembering the First Ladies coming to speak to us about the legacy of the U.S.’s first ladies Your ticket includes a signed book, wine and snacks. Guests are welcomed to this event.  More details are on the website. A special thanks to Bambi and Barry Landew for hosting this event!

Before you know it we will be staring down December madness so put December 13th and December 20th on your calendar for Women’s Club holiday events.

Signing off with a grateful heart,

Cory Clarke
