President’s May Message: Hooray for June, a month that gives sunshine to our souls. It gets its name from the Roman goddess, Juno and announces the beginning of summer later in the month and heralds the official start of the vacation
season. Many of us have spent preceding months developing plans for a time away from the rigors of everyday responsibilities and look upon June as the gateway for these vacations. We may envision going on an ocean voyage, or a river cruise or plan a trip to visit friends or family by land or by air. Others of us simply look upon June as a chance to bask
in the freedom of pleasant weather accompanied by fewer obligations. In other words, a time to “goof off” may be soon approaching and we hurry through meetings, dinners and luncheons so as to get to that time when we are free of such responsibilities. All of us value time off and those precious moments when we don’t have to hurry or maintain complex schedules. Psychologists report that it is important to give ourselves some “timeout periods” so as to refresh our minds and souls and avoid burnout. CWC members also need time to rest, reflect or just “play” so that we will be able to put forth our best efforts on new future pursuits.
On another note, Flag Day is celebrated on June 14th. Historically, it was on June 14, 1777 that the flag was officially adopted by resolution of the 2nd Continental Congress. Later, in 1916 the president by proclamation declared June 14th, officially be celebrated as Flag Day. Finally it was determined by an act of congress to be an official celebration of our nation’s flag, but was not declared a national holiday. Today, many of us fly flags and perhaps, pause to reflect on the many events that have occurred since this flag first came into being.
We must not forget Father’s Day which will be celebrated on June 18th. It honors all fathers and those special men who have influenced or cared for children. It was officially recognized as a holiday in 1972 by President Nixon.
June also represents the completion of my tenure in office. I look back upon this past CWC year with gratitude and wish to thank all of you for your kindness and support. I pray summer gives you opportunities to rest and play and that you return to CWC in the fall eager to take up the torch and continue to move onward.
Ann E. Wolf, CWC President (2016 - 2017)
