Leadership
The Violet Township Women’s League is managed by a combined Board of Directors. The Executive Board consists of five (5) elected officers (President, 1st Vice President, 2nd Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer). The remainder of the Board consists of Committee Chairs who volunteer their time and energy to the Club. Each chairperson is responsible for a specific aspect of the Club (Interest Groups, Refreshments, Hospitality, Style Show, Newsletter, etc).
Activities
At the heart of The Violet Township Women’s League is its Interest Group program. This program provides an opportunity for members with similar interests and hobbies to form social groups to encourage and support participation. The Club currently has a number of well-attended activities that include several card groups, dining groups, a book discussion group, a knitting and needlework group and more.
New groups are always encouraged. It’s as easy as assigning a coordinator, choosing a meeting time and place and contacting the Interest Group Chairperson so that she can prepare a sign-up sheet for the next general meeting. If you are interested in joining or starting an Interest Group, please contact Ann Cradduck at 614-861-6996.
Giving Back
The Violet Township Women’s League honors its purpose of service to the community in a number of ways.
The Violet Township Women’s League Community Service Scholarship Fund
The VTWL Scholarship Fund provides annual scholarship opportunities to local, college-bound high school seniors with a demonstrated commitment to community service. The scholarship fund is built from the proceeds of the Club’s annual Style Show and Luncheon fundraiser. The number of scholarships offered and the amount of each is determined annually.
Community Outreach Night
Each Fall, The Violet Township Women’s League designates a general meeting as “Community Outreach Night”. This program is organized and facilitated by the Community Service Chair(s) and features representatives from local charities and organizations who share information about their services and needs. Members are encouraged to support these organizations both individually and collectively.
Holiday “Adopted” Family
Each holiday season, The Violet Township Women’s League brightens the holiday of a family (or families) by donating gift items from a wish list provided by the family. Collections are distributed through the Club’s ongoing association with Fairfield County Department of Jobs and Family Services.
Monthly Charity Collections
Each month, a voluntary collection is taken to benefit a local charitable organization. Members are provided a list of suggested items needed by the organization and asked to bring any donations to the general meeting. The Community Service Chair(s) deliver all donations collected within a few days of the meeting.
The Violet Township Women’s League meets on the fourth Tuesday of each month, August through May.
Board meetings are held at 6:30 pm on the 3rd Tuesday of each month at Donato’s in Pickerington. All members are welcome to attend the board meeting. If you have a specific topic you would like to address, please contact jane Clagg (614-833-1148) to be added to the agenda.
