We Celebrated Women's History Month
​with our March Gladness Celebration
Several women who ran for office or appointments in 2022 gathered for dinner and a phenomenal evening of networking.
​The event was hosted by our Program Committee led by VP of Program, Yolanda Smith Charles.

Welcome all to March Gladness, where women's courage shines in brightness. In this event we honor those, who in public leadership dared to boldly go. Women who ran for office or were appointed with their knowledge, to serve their communities with pride, and break the barriers they defied. We celebrate their resilience, their bravery and their brilliance. For all the work they have done, and for the battles that they've won. May their stories inspire us all, to rise up and answer the call. To take action, make our voices heard, and never, ever be deterred. So let us raise a toast to them, the women who fought and never gave in. To March Gladness we welcome you, for this celebration is long overdue.
