Bonsall Woman's Club celebrates its 42nd birthday

BONSALL – Ratified as a Federated Women's Club in 1980, the Bonsall Woman's Club celebrated its 42nd birthday at their February general meeting. The Bonsall Community Center was filled with excitement as the members arrived to see the decorated tables and a selection of cupcakes and refreshments.

After a short business meeting, Laurie Criscenti, co-program chairman, introduced the charter members present as well as the former presidents of the club. The former presidents were individually presented with a gift and recognized for their contributions during their many years as a member and officer.

Lastly, inasmuch as February has Valentine's Day, the club will often recognize a deserving member with the Big Heart Award. The current BWC president, plus a committee of three members, selects the recipient based on her kindness to others, generosity in giving of her spare time towards the goals of the club, and overall spirit of friendship. Though many were qualified and considered, June Stone was the clear-cut winner for this year's prestigious award.

Stone was sponsored into the club by charter member June Keith in 2008. Stone's dedication to the club's well-being and success is evidenced through her photographic skills. Her volunteer role as one of the club's photographers is exhibited with each article published in the local print media. She was also the photographer for the yearbook photos, monthly newsletter, committee meetings, BWC fundraisers, etc. She is a caring person who can be relied upon to have the best interests of the club as her personal motto. She is a most deserving member of this year's Big Heart Award.

The BWC meets the first Thursday of the month at the Bonsall Community Center, 31505 Old River Road. The doors open at 9:30 – with the meeting starting at 10 a.m.
