One mission of Women of the South is to provide our members the opportunity to become involved in our community through cultural, civic, educational, and social activities. Women of the South participates in several civic events throughout the year which are chosen by our Research and Recommendation Committee to benefit our community and its citizens. Women of the South members volunteer each year for the Oklahoma City Orchestra League’s Decorator’s Show House, Arts Festival Oklahoma (OCCC), Christmas in April, and Christmas Connection. In addition, WOS participates in the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer “Race for the Cure,” the “Buddy Walk” for the Downs Syndrome Agency of Central Oklahoma, and Integris Women’s Health Forum. Women of the South not only volunteers hours, but also spends dollars in our community. Our organization has awarded grants to the YMCA, YWCA, the “On Your Own” program through Integris Health, and several elementary schools in our community who have special needs. We invite you to join this active group of women and participate in one of our exciting volunteer opportunities. Monthly business meetings are held the third Monday of each month at the South Oklahoma City Chamber of Commerce, 701 SW 74th, at 6:30 p.m., unless otherwise noted in the newsletter. The first meeting of the 2004-2005 year will be August 23, 2004, where we will learn about the year’s upcoming calendar of events. P. O.
