July 5, 2022  News Update


The Board Brief

Updates from the LWV Board and President
Our Annual Meeting participants elected our new board of directors. Check out our webpage, lwvlacrosse.org, for our Board picture and contacts. We welcome Catherine Kolkmeier, Deborah Buffton and Morgan Hose to the LWVLA Board!

LWVLA President Robin Schmidt sent a letter to the editor on the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v Wade. The title of the letter is Voter Turnout Matters. 
Check it out Here
The Board is having an organizational meeting in early July to plan for the upcoming year which will no doubt be busy with critical elections as well as programs including lunch and learns, book club, observer corps and evening talks. More to come in future news updates!

Lastly a BIG thank you to those who have renewed memberships or joined us in our efforts to Defend Democracy and Empower Voters! Having your support in our efforts is critical for us to be meaningful, informative and effect change.

The July Book Club will meet in person in the roofed picnic shelter of Riverside International Friendship Gardens. If the shelter is not available, we will meet at the garden entryway to select a different spot in the park, so bring a chair. If weather is severe, we will meet via Zoom.
All participants should still register as they will receive a backup Zoom link if the outdoor venue needs to be canceled. Participants will also receive an email confirming if the outdoor location is a "go."
