A Month to Remember

  1. To thank our firefighters for their service keeping our community safe from the devastating January fires, SICI brought a potluck meal to our local fire station.
  2. SICI hosted a Soroptimist 101 session, inviting prospective new members to learn a little more about our growing club.
  3. The SICI team gathered for our monthly Business Meeting as we prepared for the big events of the coming months.

February was a short month but a busy one!
