WCA Members are together again! By Susan Pittelman, WCA Publicity Coordinator
I
t has been nearly two years since COVID-19 became a household word and social distancing became the norm. Not to be deterred from following our mission of bringing like-minded women together, WCA leadership and
members quickly learned another word: Zoom! Using Zoom, we were able to successfully continue offering a wide variety of programming to members. Although we discovered that there are several advantages to meeting via Zoom
(and some of our interest groups are continuing to hold Zoom gatherings), we were all very excited to once again meet in person. As soon as Federation gave us the “all clear,” WCA began to offer inperson events.
Enjoy these photos of WCA in-person programs as WCA members experienced the joy of being together again (and, hopefully, we will again soon)! (Thank you to everyone who responded to the request for photos.)
