Calendar - APRIL 2026     


​WHAT'S  HAPPENING

April 2026
Health and Wellness CSP partnered with other local Women's Clubs to support residents at Harmony House of Chantilly in Herndon.  We donated thoughtful Bingo prizes (puzzle books, picture frames,  notepads, candy, soaps, and more).
Activities like Bingo do more than entertain.  They stimulate cognitive function, encourage social interaction, and boost emotional wellbeing, all essential to healthy aging.  Seniors LOVE these activities and LOVE winning the prizes.
Education CSP donated more bears to Herndon Police Department.  The officers keep bears in their patrol cars for children when answering a police call.  They also give bears to children visiting their station.

The HWC International Dinner was held at LaBonneVie this March.  Members enjoyed the chance to enjoy a delicious meal and chatting with other members. 
Education CSP always enjoy participating in Book Fairs.  In early  March they were at the Dranesville Book Fair.

Arts CSP shared a display at the Herndon Fortnightly Library in March for winners of various categories submitted in the 2025 Arts Contest.   The large frame, includes a group art project with contributions from many members!

​February 2026
The Arts CSP honored a long time member by providing material for residents of The Kensington to make "Trayscapes," with a kit theme  related to Valentine's Day.  The residents enjoyed creating their own piece of ephemeral art from the material which could make a different outcome each time. The activity director indicated the residents looked forward to doing more.  They felt "Tinka" was with them in spirit.
CEO CSP continues to provide supplies to make greeting cards for military personnel  to have on hand.  
CEO Members made First Aid Kits for families at LINK
The club was pleased to receive a check from the Herndon Homes Tour as a thank you for providing docents at the Mayor's home in December.
​
At the February meeting members had the chance to check out 23 comfort chickens!  These handmade, colorful chickens were made to share with special people to cuddle and feel a special warmth.  Thanks to the ladies who met at the Herndon Library to share their flock.
Comfort chickens will be shared

MANY THANKS to everyone who helped place wreaths to THANK, HONOR and REMEMBER a veteran at the Ceremony last month.
A special THANKS to It's Haul Good for providing their truck after removal of every wreath prior to the drop of temperatures and snow and ice storm. THANKS to the few dozen folks that helped pick up wreaths and stakes. THANKS also to Mission BBQ for providing some delicious food for our group after the cleanup.  They are constantly showing support for Veterans throughout the year.
MLK Day of Service January 19
Members of Holy Cross Lutheran Church and the Herndon Woman's Club worked on several projects.  The church wrapped useful items in towels.  HWC filled socks with rice to keep small animal warm when recuperating; sorting old crayons by color to be recycled for sending to children's in hospitals; filling bags with beans and mixed spices for making soup; filling bags of black beans; painting rocks with positive messages for sharing with others; making lanyards for use by field personnel.  The various items will be distributed to various groups within the community. There was also a Blood Donor Services Bloodmobile outside in Honor of Blood Donor Month.
