This year over 400 business women representing 63 Chapters within the United States and Canada attended!

It was a terrific event — motivational, inspirational, thought-provoking, and just a really great overall experience and opportunity to meet a diverse and accomplished  population of professionals representing a variety of organizations and firms.

This year at LCAM, over $84,000 was awarded including, scholarships given to high school juniors to support educational goals (called: Executive Women International Scholarship Program — EWISP), scholarships to adults facing work/life challenges (called: Adult Students in Scholastic Transition — ASIST) and scholarships given to EWI members to assist in their educational endeavors (called: Fellows).

LCAM was “connections, careers, and community” at its finest!

Sound interesting?  Join us at an upcoming meeting — We meet on the fourth Thursday of each month (except during November & December when we meet earlier to avoid the holidays) from 5:30 to 7:30 PM.  Just email Shellie Morrison, Membership, at Shellie@nwark.com to join us for a meeting and meet our representatives.

Also, mark your calendars now — the next LCAM is in Kansas City, Missouri September 23-25, 2010!! Love to see you there!!
