Greetings!

By Patti Boochever, WCA President

I am proud to be president of WCA and am thrilled by our organization’s success, which I attribute to each of you. After successfully navigating the challenges of COVID-19, our 2022-2023 season was better than ever. Special thanks to the WCA Board of Directors, group liaisons, branch leaders, and the women who planned special events, along with the multitude of volunteers who worked at these events this past season.

As of the end of July 2023, we are 1,550+ members strong and continue to receive new members and renewals every day! (Our computer management system has made processing memberships and renewals online so much easier.)

WCA is planning an exciting season — our busiest ever! We already have a great lineup of speakers, and we are planning some “don’t-miss” trips. As always, if you have ideas for programs — or any suggestions for WCA — please share them with me.

I hope that these photos of some of last year’s special events get you excited for the new season. (Below the photo is the event date for the 2023-2024 season.)

But, to be able to participate, you need to be a member of WCA. To join WCA or to renew your membership, visit our website, wcanaples.org. Click on “Join or Renew” under “Membership” on the menu bar. It’s that easy!

To our members who celebrate the Jewish New Year, on behalf of the WCA Board of Directors, I wish you and your loved ones, a year filled with good health, joy and numerous gatherings with friends.
