September Supper

Wilder Mansion, 211 S. Prospect Ave, Elmhurst

It is time to reconnect after our summer break!

Enjoy conversations with old and new members in this gem of a venue in Elmhurst. You are welcome to invite guests who are not currently AAUW members. It’s an easy way for them to meet us and enjoy our company in a relaxed atmosphere. We’ll hear about our program line up for the coming year at the end of the evening.

We are asking members to bring either an appetizer, salad, or dessert to the dinner. Call (630-674-1426) or email (cheiney@att.net) Carolyn Heiney and let her know your preference, no later than August 27th.

A fee of $15 per member will cover paper supplies, beverages, ice and other necessities. Guests are free, just let Carolyn know that you will bring a guest, when you sign up for your food choice.
