President

What a special luncheon and fashion

show we enjoyed on April 9! The Granite

Bay Golf Club was such an elegant venue,

and the table settings were a lovely touch

of Spring. Thanks go to Debra Simon and

her committee, especially the luncheon

planning and reservations by Patti

Bumpus and Deb Payne. The floral ar-

rangements by Carol Geaney, Brigitte

Apel, and Angie Zimmerman added a

touch of elegance, as did the beautiful programs created by

Debra Simon and Lori Winters. The highlight of the event was

the professionally choreographed fashion show by Mirror Mirror,

featuring our very own lovely models: Debi Allen, Brigitte Apel,

Diana Crosby, Carole Holt, Carol Geaney, Erika Kleczek, Nancy

Vaughn and Lori Winters. Of course, they could never have

looked so “together” without the help of hair stylists and

makeup artists from Maribou Salon on Sutter or the dressers Lee

Guertin, Carolyn La France, Roma Turoff, Deb Payne and Doris

Stinnett. And to top off a totally successful program we added

nearly $1000 to our raffle proceeds for our adopted charity, Lilli-

put. We will be pleased to present Lilliput a very large check at

the last luncheon of the year on May 14! You will not want to

miss that presentation, nor their response. Plan to attend and

show your appreciation for the excellent work of the outgoing

Board. Each one has been dedicated and very effective. It has

been a true pleasure working with them to welcome new mem-

bers and to offer fun activities and events to all our members.

On May 14 we will install the new Board for 2014-2015. Con-

sidering the mix of talent on that Board, I know it will be an out-

standing year under the capable leadership of President-Elect

Debra Simon!

I challenge each member to help make that a reality. — Cathy

I have six names on a list for a new Bunco

group but need six more to be able to get this

group up and running. Bunco is a really fun game

that takes absolutely no expertise except for be-

ing able to throw the dice! Let me know if you

would be interested.

Some of the activities will remain active over

the summer months. Check the newsletters to see

which ones are active so you don’t miss out on

the fun. Also, don't forget to renew your mem-

bership so you can continue to enjoy all the great

small activity groups that are offered by our Club.

Be sure to renew by June 30.

What a fabulous day of fun, feasting, fashions

and friendship we had at the April Luncheon and

Fashion Show. Granite Bay Golf Club provided the

perfect venue for our event with its lovely patios,

golf course views, amazing room, perfect service

and delicious food! The fashions were so "now"

and so “gorgeous” that many of us have headed

to Mirror Mirror to try them on ourselves. They

did an outstanding job and were delightful to

work with. The flowers were not only positively

exquisite but so fragrant and how wonderful that

a guest at each table got to take one home!!

Hope to see you at the Side Bar at Bistro 33

for the May luncheon on the 14th, if not, have a

wonderful summer!!!!!

What: : Lilliput Kinship Support Services Program

EDH Newcomers is a social CLUB WITH A

HEART and that will be especially evident at this

month's luncheon when we donate more than

$3,500 to our chosen charity, the Lilliput Kinship

Support Services program of El Dorado Hills.

Kinship families are formed when kin, grand-

parents or extended family members bring into

their home abused, neglected and at-risk children

who can no longer be safely or effectively raised

by their birth parents.

What is unique about kinship care is that when

grandchildren and other young loved ones come

into a family member’s home, neither the caregiv-

ers nor children are prepared for this transition. It

is a decision that is made out of crisis, usually due

to birth parent drug addiction, incarceration or

mental health issues. Unlike traditional foster

families, most kinship families, particularly those

formed informally receive little, if any, support or

training.

Lilliput offers kinship families a variety of sup-

portive services including support groups, assis-

tance in applying for guardianship or MediCal, in-

formation about critical mental health, medical,

dental and financial assistance and more.

Lilliput’s mission is to ensure that all children

are given the chance to be part of a safe and nur-

turing family. Lilliput currently completes more

adoptions for foster children than any private

agency in the state and has finalized adoptions for

6,500 California foster children.

Thank you for all your raffle ticket purchases

that helped make this donation possible and for

being part of A CLUB WITH A HEART.

I have thoroughly enjoyed being your Welcome

Director this year and loved being a member of our

outstanding board. Our Coffees and our Wine and

Appetizer Get Together were fun to plan, and even

more fun to attend! It was very rewarding to get to

know our new members at these informal gatherings!

I must once again extend a huge thank you to our

Board members for being such enthusiastic mentors

to our new members--thank you, thank you, thank

you!!!!!! I look forward to all the wonderful events our

new board will plan for next year!

have time to chat while enjoying divine appetizers

with drinks followed by a delicious meal and

scrumptious dessert. Glad we had the special

Well here I am with my final entry in the newsletter!

Happy and sad all at the same time… It has been

a fun filled three years, and I will have lasting and

wonderful memories. Being on the board has given

me the opportunity to meet so many wonderful ladies.

cessor, and I know she will do a wonderful job as Spe-

cial Events Director. I wish her all the best, and part-

nering with Carol Geaney I am sure they will do a won-

derful job keeping us entertained! I will miss my

completed our study of identity theft and ways to

protect ourselves and our assets. We learned more

about types of identity theft by sharing instances

that have happened to us, news updates, articles

that we researched, and what to watch for with

scams. Cathy Thornton summarized the results of

a survey we took at the first meeting which will

guide our future program content. The group has

voiced strong interest in learning more about in-

vestment options, the role of long term care insur-

ance, and estate planning issues.
