WOMEN IN HISTORY GROUP
This, our 11th season was
a wonderful success. We did 12 schools in
our four district area. We also did a program
at the Hayward Main Library on the evening
of March 28th and on the 29th we went to Oakland
to a school where Evelyn Gertler subs. We
did two 5th grade classrooms and had some
wonderful questions from the audience. We
are always looking for more members to join
our group. We have a number of scripts already
done, so you don’t have to reinvent
the wheel to join us each March.
DRAMA READING
We meet on the first Wednesday of the month
at 7pm at Liz Bathgate’s home.
The play for April will
be “Walking on the Moon” by Jason
Milligan. It will take place at 7pm on April
5th. Refreshments will be served and all are
welcome to join us.
On May 3rd we will
read the last play for this season and it
will be “Sunshine Boys” by Neil
Simon.
