Why We FCE?

Why we FCE!

Our neighbors to the north and sister groups in ACWW ~ the WI ~ Women's Institutes have been running a program called Why I WI. It is just a fun thing to do with each group. I’ve been following it on their Facebook site.
 

Our conference chair Bonnie Teeples (AND US Area ACWW President) came up with WHY WE FCE

I would like to ask each group of FCE to have your members write on a white board or white piece of paper why they belong or joined FCE. Take a picture of each individual member or the group and post it here on our National FCE page or the National FCE group.

 

National FCE would like to share the pictures at conference in August. It will be a fun to see why each member joined FCE and why they stay a member. We may also use the pictures to promote FCE Week in October. WHY WE FCE ~ share your group's WHY
