Women in Nude Recreation (WINR) meets noon in the Lake Como recreation hall Wednesday November 20th. Please RSVP by Nov. 18th to maryannerettig@gmail.com.
The November meeting features an informational talk from Leese Fry, who works at the Sunrise Women’s Shelter. We hope there is no one in our company who has had to experience the horrors these women have gone thru. Imagine having to escape your home with little to nothing but the clothes on your back. PLUS, many have children, even babies, who have to be taken in as well.
This month WINR supports the shelter by bringing gift cards for $10 – $20. These cards will allow the residents to buy a little Holiday something for their child(ren) or themselves.
Due to the Thanksgiving holiday, the Lake Como Co-op Board of Directors meeting this month will be held at 6 pm MONDAY Nov. 25th in the rec hall & by zoom. Agenda posts no later than 48 hours before start of meeting. new.lakecomonaturally.com/co-op
