CNEW Luncheon and Afternoon Service Project

Description

For this September's CNEW Meeting there are two ways to participate: 
Option One: Join us for lunch, networking and to hear a word from our speakers.
Option Two: Join us for lunch and stick around to lend a hand for our afternoon service project. If you would like to volunteer, please sign up on the volunteer list after you register for the regular luncheon so we know you're staying to help. 

Each year the ladies of CNEW vote on a local non profit to support throughout the year. Our 2021 non-profit is the Glady's H Oberle School. The Glady's H Oberle school will host our September luncheon to give us the opportunity to learn more about their mission. We will also hear from Michelle Hedrich on the importance of being involved in community. After lunch, we have the opportunity to complete a service project for the school, an outdoor musical sensory wall.

As a group, we'd like to invite you to help us with a service project at the school. After lunch we'll be making an outdoor musical sensory wall. This will include designing, painting and placing of the instruments. See a few examples walls below.

Musical therapy plays an important role in mental and even physical health. It can improve cognitive function, emotional development, social skills and motor skills. Plus they're are tons of fun! If you're able to help out for the afternoon, be sure to sign up on the volunteer list.
