Portales Woman’s Club “pays” their speakers by giving a book in the speakers name to the Portales Public Schools after each meeting. Due the the Covid-19 rules, the PWC met via zoom meetings during this past year, so they were a little behind in the book presentations.
Portales Woman’s Club 2021 President, Quaylene Parkey presented books to Dianna Herrera and Margaret Gomez who accepted the books on behalf of The Portales Municipal Schools. The books were presented in appreciation for programs; September – “Wagon Wheels, Pollen Alerts and Why I’m Glad to be Alive in 2020 Even in a Global Pandemic by Betty Williamson – October – “Update on GO Bond “C” and Dr. Caldwell’s time as First President of ENMU – Dr. Patrice Caldwell – November – Inspiration for Women by Roxanne Swann – January – Happy 118th. Birthday PWC Lighting of the Birthday Candle by Sheryl Borden, PWC Past President, February – RGH Update & Surviving a Global Pandemic by Kaye Green, Executive Director, RGH, March – 40-50-60-70 Still Beautiful After All These Years – by Jolene Hale, Women’s Medi-Spa. – April, Bridge To Hope, by Teresa Howard, New Mexico Baptist Children’s Home.
