This month's President's Message
I hope you enjoyed a belle rentrée. Thank you to everyone (21) who came out for the Welcome Back Apéro in September and for the robust attendance at AWG activities like Book Club, Beach Babes, Writers’ Bloc, and Talk & Sit.
Please be sure to mark Sunday, November 17th on your calendar for the annual AWGLR Thanksgiving celebration – always the highlight of our club year. It will take place again at Domaine de Fondespierre in Castries. If you know someone who would enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving dinner, please invite them to join us. Event details and an Evite will be sent out later this fall.
Noel Gaussens, our FAWCO liaison, Orla and Clara Blundell, and I will be attending the FAWCO Region 3 meeting in Paris October 3-6, and look forward to sharing FAWCO news with all of you when we return.
Please welcome back AWGLR former member, Gillian (Jill) Ferrieu, and new to Montpellier and member to our club, Kathryn Reasoner. You’ll find their bios and photos further down in this newsletter.
Bonne continuation,
Jennifer Hodge Jerzyk
President 2024-25
