By Sue Whittaker, Co-Chair
Davie Women’s Auxiliary

Members and guests of Davie Women’s Auxiliary gathered at Habitat’s ReStore in Bermuda Run on Oct. 16 for their first annual meeting.
The auxiliary, formed just a few months ago, has 36 members who are led by their mission to “promote fellowship among women in Davie County and to provide support for charitable efforts and organizations in the community.”
The evening’s program began with time for socializing and shopping at the ReStore, and then local resident Cathe Hege spoke about quilt-making and shared several of her hand-made quilts.
After the official call-to-order, ByLaws Committee Chair Rae Nelson led the members through the process to adopt bylaws and to elect officers: Linda Ernst and Sue Whittaker, co-chairs; Michelle Jones, vice chair; Gini Brannon, secretary; and Sally Liner, treasurer.
Plans were discussed for events over the next two months, including a poinsettia sale at the ReStore in early December and a Christmas dinner in partnership with Bermuda Village to benefit Habitat for Humanity Davie.
Several members were traffle winners of gift cards to Maddie Cakes and bouquets of Linda Ernst’s dahlias.
The next meeting will be Nov. 20 at 10:30 a.m. when members and their guests will carpool to King for lunch and to view the poinsettias at Mitchell’s Nursery.
