Event Description:
The Women’s Council programming for 2017 will take the feminine concept of “bossiness” to a new dimension.
In sessions designed specifically with women in mind, and sure to be informative, the quarterly meetings will focus on how to “Be the Boss of Your . . . Health (Feb. 27), Finances (May 22), Legal Issues (Aug. 21) and Career (Dec. 4).”
Women’s lives have changed over the centuries. In 1900 a woman’s life span was about 50 years. Now average life expectancy for American women is 82 years of age and is continuing to rise. Not only are women living longer, but they also can anticipate the possibility of enjoying a better quality of life throughout their span of years.
“To accomplish this, it is essential that women take charge of their own bodies and learn how they can maximize their personal health,” Ann Marie Brewer, chairman of the Women’s Council steering committee, said.
Drs. Brenda Snowman and Janet Coombs will address “How to Be the Boss of Your Health” at the first Women’s Council luncheon on Monday, Feb. 27, at noon. They will discuss issues unique to women and then allow time for questions and answers.
