You can be busy all week long if you’d like. Pam Legvold came to Corpus Christi after spending over a decade in Holland. She found that joining the league really made her transition back to Texas more comfortable. The league was instrumental in helping Legvold plant roots again. “I needed to start over, new doctors, new hair salons, all those little things you may not think of. The league is the perfect referral network!” Current President Kim Woodall points out that it’s easy to join, but the key is to get involved. She suggests “Get involved immediately, be busy, we’re a social group that cares about the community.” Although this is a nonprofit organization where funds go straight back into socials, they find ways to give back. Through the Hearts and Hands Club, members participate in charities close to their hearts. Their various charitable endeavors include Toys for Tots, the Ronald McDonald House, Habitat for Humanity, Beach Cleanups…the list could go on. The oldest member of the league recently passed away at 102 years old. The women have a theory – girlfriends keep you young!!
Activities the leaguers arrange include not only coffees, lunches and cocktail hours, but they think outside the box, too! Other events include: Mahjongg, Movie Club, Antique Club, Bunco, Lagerheads, and Friends of Bacchus, to name a few.
