2026-2028 Installation of MLWC Officers

Welcome MLWC Officers of 2026-2028

by Christina Grossman, MLWC President

We, as members of the Mount Lemmon Women's Club, gathered in May to welcome new and returning members, Diana Kachan and Susan Shomo.  Welcome! We are calling out to ALL women on Mt Lemmon to join our organization to make a difference in our community and have fun being a part of an amazing group of strong minded and brilliant women!  Join us!

We also need our voices and efforts heard on social media.  Members approved moving forward with development of a website and management of our Facebook page. Susan Miller-Cochran and Diana Kachan volunteered to help move us forward.

Our popular Cabin Tours are on June 13, followed by the Membership Luncheon on June 27th.  We need volunteers for setup and cleanup efforts for the luncheon. We need help with moving tables and chairs to the cabin. Please reach out to Sandi Triplett.

We need members to walk in the annual Fourth of July Parade. We are going strong with 50+ years! We encourage families, children, donkeys, and dogs to join in on the fun of participating! There will be a flyover, band performances, classic cars, rescue donkeys, and a celebration of America’s 250th birthday.  Reach out to Hazel Rugg,  parade coordinator, for information.

We concluded our meeting with installation of new officers.  Jennifer Shacter conducted the installation  with a balance of humor, heartfelt tributes, and tradition.  The new officers of the MLWC are:  Christina Grossman, President, Nancy Sjostrum, First Vice President, Teresa Wilson, Second Vice President, Donna Schotter, Secretary, and Karen Burrows, Treasurer.

The next meeting is set for June 20^th.  The entire community is invited to attend our June Speaker Series at 2:00pm.  Dr. Salywon, from the Phoenix Desert Botanical Gardens, will present on the wild orchid that grows on Mt Lemmon.
