On April 12, Club president Jane Gleason, and members Evelyn Caccia, Ruth Holtorf, Mary Heidecker and Connie Gonsalves presented the money to Jackson City Councilman Wayne Garibaldi, a member of the Revitalization Committee.

Gleason said the money will be used to assist in the City enhancement efforts that are currently under way. All proceeds were raised from the Club’s rummage sale, “Time Worn Treasures,” held “Dandelion Days” weekend.

Gleason said for 101 years the Woman’s Club service organization has fulfilled its commitment to the City of Jackson through Social, Civic, Educational and Philanthropic efforts.

Gleason also invited all women of Amador County to a Friday, May 4 lunch meeting, with guest speaker Shirley Harper, a retired employee of The National Hotel, who was not only the Bookkeeper but also an entertainer at the historic Hotel. Harper will share some of her songs and some intimate details about the Hotel that will only be shared with The Woman’s Club of Jackson.

Registration is at 11:30 a.m. and lunch is noon at the Native Sons Building, Excelsior Parlor Number 31, on Court Street. For info call 223-4193 or 223-4092.
