Bee Advised
One of our club's spotlight programs, our Marlton Woman’s Club Spelling Bee, was successfully held Thursday, January 19, 2023 at Van Zant School at 6:00 pm. It was a terrific evening! GFWC women's clubs all across New Jersey -- and country wide -- are holding similar spelling bees, one of the hallmark events of the General Federation of Women's Clubs (GFWC) and New Jersey State Federation of Women's Clubs (NJSFWC).
The popular local event was open to Evesham area fourth and fifth graders, who competed in more than 40 rounds of a spelling bee and had faithfully studied their list words for weeks. It was amazing!
Winners will advance to the Garden District Spelling Bee on February 26, 2023 at Haddon Fortnightly.
Winners from the Garden District Bee will advance to the NJSFWC State Spelling Bee.
We often associate the month of February with hearts because of Valentine’s Day. However, there’s another reason we should think about hearts in February; it’s American Heart Month.
February is designated as American Heart Month to advocate cardiovascular health and raise awareness about heart disease.
American Heart Month is a wonderful opportunity to focus our attention on ways to promote and maintain heart health. Since 1963, American Heart Month has been celebrated as a way to educate Americans to join the battle against heart disease. Learn more here ...
Marlton Woman's Club members will be WEARING RED to their General Meeting on Monday, February 27th.
