Thanksgiving Lunch 2011

On Thursday, November 24th, a group of about 30 AIWCC members (including a few husbands, little people and guests) attended the Thanksgiving lunch.

It was a beautiful day and everyone was in very good spirits.  The Americans in the group were truly happy to have a taste of familiarity on this very special holiday and the international members were able to see what all the fuss is about. Everyone left happy and sated. For all of us who are far away from home on these important holidays, it is truly a blessing to be able to celebrate them with our extended AIWCC family.

So, thank you to all you members and guests who joined us for yet another memorable AIWCC event.

The Annual AIWCC Independence Day BBQ 2011

What a fabulous turn out for my first July 4th Celebration! So, thank you to all you members and guests who joined us for yet another memorable AIWCC event.

I’m sure you’ll all agree that it was so nice to see so many husbands and kids joining us in celebrating the biggest date on the US calendar! The venue proved itself yet again as a great location with the shady area for food, drink, seating and eating. Whilst the huge field was well used by the kids to work up and appetite and made a great arena for the kids games too. The weather contributed to making this a lovely afternoon by staying warm and dry. Read more...

We look forward to seeing you at upcoming events this Autumn and of course joining us again next July 4th!

Annual General Meeting - June 2011

The 2011 AGM took place on June 15t.  Our advertisers were invited to come and take part this year, giving our members a chance to meet them personally.  Thank you to all our participating advertisers!   

Those in attendance heard from some of the Executive Board members regarding the Club’s finances, membership status, charities and activities as well as learning a bit more about FAWCO, our parent organization The reports were clear and concise and gave everyone a better understanding of the business aspect of the AIWCC.  New Executive Board was elected.  

The AIWCC could not run as smoothly as it does without all the volunteers who put in many hours of hard work throughout the year. Their efforts were recognized in the second part of the meeting.   There were smiles, hugs and laughter, and a wonderful feeling of camaraderie and sisterhood pervaded the air.  Who knew a meeting could be such fun?
