Hi girls, A big thanks to those who came to the pool party and the Yogli Mogli events! It was great to see such wonderful turnouts! Come to the Craft Center *TOMORROW* (Thursday) from *6-8pm* to paint ceramics with Women@CC!! The Craft Center is located on the third floor of the Student Center. The club will purchase one item per person, but if you'd like to paint anything extra then you are welcome to buy it yourself. Regular meetings will begin NEXT Thursday, September 6th at 8pm in the College of Computing Building Room 354. We will start things off with cookie-decorating and an overview of our plans for the semester. I hope to see you all tomorrow at the Craft Center!
