Message From the President

I’m delighted to welcome you to the 79th year of the University at Buffalo Women’s Club. We are an organization of over 350 women and offer a wide range of activities to accommodate the vast array of interests of the group.

A brief description of these activities are listed in this brochure as well as the schedule for special events such as the luncheons, International evening and the Food and Wine Pairing Dinner, our major fundraiser. These events are vital to our mission of sponsoring the Grace Capen Academic Awards because a portion of the fee goes towards their financing. Please consider attending them.

Beginning in January the Nominating Committee will begin to look for new members to fill any outgoing positions on the Executive Board. This is not an easy task since the Board is comprised of 40 Chair/Co-chair slots! But each one is vital to the organization and offers a wonderful opportunity to fully understand the UBWC.  The Activities Chairs will also be considering prospective chairs. If asked, please don’t hesitate to step forward. You may also participate by becoming a committee member. There are so many choices for you!

Please keep this trifold close at hand. It provides you with all the contact information for every leadership position as well as the Events Schedule. Also, it contains the Statement of Purpose of the Club. Please take a moment to read it. In addition, there is a detailed description of the Fall luncheon. At this event, you will be able to speak with the Activity Chairs and learn more about your opportunities to sign up. Don’t miss it!

I look forward to seeing you and hope that you will cherish your time with us. Don’t forget to get involved. It is much more fun and rewarding that way!
