BPW California North District

Our District just had its Annual Conference on April 20, 2024 in Sacramento.

We tried a new venue: the premises of the HEC (Health Education Council)
which were both functional and friendly.

Its Executive Director, Debbie Oto-Kent, educated the members on the many
functions of this organization.

We were also very pleased to have had the chance of meeting Joanne Kinsey,
President of BPW United Kingdon who joined us. Besides addressing us on the various
activities and scope of BPW-UK which includes England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and
Wales, she mentioned in particular a project very dear to their heart which is presently
giving their full support to the BPW-Ukraine members. A van full of useful items has
been purchased for them and they all keep closely in touch during these difficult times.

As with the other Districts we havd our annual reports, election of Officers and
planned our next meeting for September.

The three clubs, Berkeley, Chico and Downtown Sacramento are continuing
their activities and programs in their areas and growing their memberships.

We are looking forward to attend the Annual State Conference in May.

Patricia Long, President
BPW California North
