Message from GFWC Florida Director of Junior Clubs
If you are like me, you are long overdue for a day with your girlfriends! We have created an experience to give you a day away from life’s responsibilities. This year Summer Planning will look a little different, because we all need it. A day starting with an interactive tour of the Florida Historic Capitol Museum learning about our state history and how we can use our voices to create change, nourishing our volunteer spirit with a hands on project and having fun tossing glitter around making bath bombs with our GFWC girlfriends. For one day, let’s get together and forget about our to-do lists. Let’s do what we love, together, with our GFWC sisters. See you at the Capitol!
Breathe, Christa Nuckols | FL Director of Junior Clubs
