Wednesday, April 14, 2021, 7:30 p.m., Zoom Meeting VISION BOARDS
Our symphony starts with “A clear vision…” Share your personal “vision” as displayed on your Vision Board. In March we got tips from Dian and websites to get us started.
In place of a Founders’ Day gathering this April, we think about our founders’ “clear vision” and our own. No vision or goal is too large or too small. It is a personal choice.
Whether you have made a paper representation of your vision or not, join us in the discussion of “A Clear Vision”.

Wednesday, March 10, 2021, 7:30 p.m., Zoom Meeting Purpose/Career Wellbeing

There will be an opportunity to share your Vision Board in April.
Reminder: Chicago North Shore Alumnae Association dues of $50 are due on March 1, 2021, for 2021-2022.
