GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members participated in the Annual American Cancer Society Relay for Life fundraiser held at the MOSI campus.  The clubwomen together with their teen-sponsored club, GFWC Little Women of Lutz, collaborated to form a very enthusiastic team.  This year’s team theme was “Pirates of the Cure-ibbean” with the ladies and young women dressed in colorful pirate costumes and hats.  Despite torrential downpours, the team was able to raise over $1200 to benefit research in finding a cure for cancer.

GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB has always prioritized education and supports the wonderful local teachers and schools as often as it can.  Club member, Sabrina Scott (pictured center), recently visited Lutz Elementary K-8 School to deliver a cartful of snacks and treats to PTA representatives which will be distributed to the teachers this week as small tokens of the club’s gratitude and in commemoration of “Teacher Appreciation Week”.  Similar gifts of appreciation were delivered to the teachers at Connerton Elementary and Miles Elementary Schools .  These 3 schools have received support from the Woman’s Club for many years.

GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members brought a load of learning materials and supplies and set up shop at the 2022 Earth Day Celebration at Crews Lake Wilderness Park in Spring Hill.  The clubwomen, many of whom are retired teachers, helped the youngsters (and some parents) with fun crafts and in the process the kids learned much about saving the environment in small and large ways.  They were delighted to take home their craft work and were given packets of materials and art supplies with lots of important “Save the Earth” information.

GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members toured the Oasis Pregnancy Care Center in Land O’Lakes with Dave Dorsey, the Development Director, who explained the Center’s role in the community and how it serves expectant and new Moms.   Within the Center is a baby boutique to assist those new mothers stocked with baby items.  The clubwomen donated a great supply of maternity clothing, baby items, clothes, diapers and other needed baby equipment. 

 

GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members were busily preparing colorful Easter pieces to be delivered to Meals on Wheels of Tampa Bay and placed on their meal trays for a festive touch.  The club women worked assembly line style to produce these lovely pieces.  The senior clients and shut-ins will feel more celebratory after receiving the decorations and Easter greetings and know they are not forgotten during this season of renewal.

GFWC LUTZ-LAND O’LAKES WOMAN’S CLUB members were part of a recent statewide train trip to tour the Washington, D.C. monuments, view the beautiful cherry trees in full bloom AND visit their GFWC Headquarters.  The ladies enjoyed a very special visit with Marion St. Clair, International President of GFWC at its stunning headquarters in Georgetown.
