In February of 2010, I was appointed to fill the vacancy of
Director for Region VI at the Winter AzFRW meeting in Yuma.
Being a Region Director has given me a wonderful opportunity to be
a member of the AzFRW Executive Board.
To work with, and know, women whose years of experience not only
within our Federation, but some who have served on NFRW committees,
has been a memorable experience for me.
The clubs in this Region are diverse in membership as well as
leadership. They all present excellent speakers, especially
when the program includes candidates for public office.
They all continue to strive for an increase in membership as well as
encourage members with obvious leadership skills to seek higher
office within the Federation.
The following is just a highlight of what has impressed me
with each club.
Ahwatukee
- President - Loraine Pellegrino - Gubernatorial Breakfast
Forum; fantastic increase in membership; awarding of a $500.
Educational scholarship to a graduating high school senior.
Cactus Wren
- Presidents - Judith Sides/Sandra Ramsey Lines - “Angels on Patrol”

their views on a topic presented by a member.
Chandler
- President - Ann Caswell - Meet the Candidate Breakfast; “Rounding
up Republicans” by increasing voter registration at the annual
Chandler Ostrich Festival.
Gilbert
- Presidents - Margo Pierce/Kirsten Walker - This is the newest club
in Region VI which co-chaired with Chandler RW and Mesa RW, “unite
2010” - an extremely well attended dinner candidate event.
Mesa
- President - Sherry Pierce - Phenomenal speakers! Collected
several thousand dollars donation to “Wheel Chairs for Haiti” to
help with post-earthquake efforts.
Tempe
- President - Sue Pullar - $500. Contribution to Corona TARS to help
with expenses to TARS Washington, D.C. convention; Excellent Caring

I want to thank all the Club Presidents for their dedicated
leadership and their friendship which I shall treasure forever.
