Hybrid Meeting June 10, 2022

LAST WEEK'S PROGRAM:

    
Leanne Lippincot-Wuerthele discussed her new book based on her true story "Surviving Life's Storms" where she lost her husband in an airplane crash, then found out she had breast cancer that spread to her lymph nodes and had to have a double mastectomy then followed by the news that she had a brain aneurism and had extensive brain surgery. 
 
We learned what Leanne did to survive these horrible storms by "Humor and Healing". Bret Favre encouraged her to write this book. It helped him too.
 
Program was made possible by Jim Olmsted.

New Mask Policy

Effective at 12:00 am on March 1, 2022, Public Health Madison & Dane County no longer requires face coverings in public indoor spaces in light of steadily decreasing COVID-19 case rates and hospitalizations.

“Letting the face-covering order expire doesn’t mean that the pandemic is over. Rather, it signals that we have made it through the Omicron surge and are entering a new stage of the pandemic,” said Janel Heinrich, Director of Public Health Madison & Dane County. “The most important thing you can do now is to stay up-to-date on our vaccines as they have proven to be highly effective in protecting you from becoming severely ill, ending up in the hospital, or dying from COVID-19.”

As stated at a previous meeting we are making a change to our attendance policy. We will no longer be requiring members and guests to wear a mask during our in-person meetings.  Please note that we will no longer be asking attendees to be vaccinated in order to attend in-person meetings.  We know that this is a very personal choice for all.
