Newberry women travel for convention

Four members of the Newberry Women's Club, an affiliate of the General Federation of Women's Clubs, attended the District 5 Upper Peninsula annual meeting Wednesday and Thursday in Menominee, returning home exhausted but full of enthusiasm for member recruiting and fund raising for Newberry Women's Club projects. An article detailing conference happenings is in the works. When complete, I will post a link to the story here. In the meantime, enjoy these photographs from the event.
