Retirees Executive Board

New members of the Executive Board:

DONNA SABELLA, vice president and co-WTA Liaison and

JENNIFER LOUGHRAN, communications director.

Welcome Donna and Jennifer!:)

COVID19 and the new normal: The Executive Board has been meeting through ZOOM. We plan and brainstorm, keeping all our members up-to-date on pertinent information. We revived our newsletter. The latest edition came out May 2022. To view, click the link at the bottom of this page. All members will get an email copy. Also, check out the "NEWS!" page on this website to view the brochure we are sending to all new retirees going forward.

In-person luncheons are back but we are keeping two general membership ZOOM meetings a year. They proved to be a great addition! They allow those who live a distance away or who just cannot make an in-person meeting, the ability to participate and connect. Our first outdoor, in-person, fall luncheon was Sept. 22, 2021 and the holiday luncheon was Dec. 8, 2021. Our latest Zoom membership meeting was held May 9, 2022 at 2pm.
