BPW - making connections

I have often wondered about other BPW organizations as well as the state and national levels.  Up until this weekend they were somewhat smoke and mirrors to me.

Did you know that any member of BPW can attend the Interim Board meeting of the State BPW chapter known as KFBPW?  I would encourage you to check out the website of KFBPW at http://www.bpw-ky.org to get the bigger picture of just how influential and far reaching BPW really is.  I met some amazing women this past weekend from all over Kentucky that are members of other chapters as well as leaders for the state organization of BPW. 

This is an excellent way to not only get connected with members from River City but to expand your network and knowledge about the other members and how they are advancing their local chapter and helping women.

The year’s event was held at Barren River Resort in Lucas Kentucky with almost 50 women in attendance. 

We had a great time together while sharing ideas, receiving training on the leadership program by Phyllis Hargrave and Bonny Manning, and participating in a live auction led by Debbie Pierce and her team to raise even more funds for scholarships. 

There are a lot of ways within BPW to make these alliances and get connected - come be a part and know at the end of the day - you made a difference in the lives of other women.
