Great Decisions
Are you in the know about our world?
Great Decisions is a national program of the Foreign Policy Association. Great Decisions is the largest non-partisan citizen education effort of its kind and has provided quality information and tools for over fifty years. Their mission: Inform, engage, inspire.
Our International Affairs focus group worked with the Cranbury Public Library to provide these programs on the Second Tuesday of each month. There is a video followed by a discussion of the topic. Sign up for the Zoom meeting on the Library website by clicking the date on the calendar at https://www.cranburypubliclibrary.org/.
“For me, I am driven by two main philosophies: know more today about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you.”
― Neil deGrasse Tyson
Our Members with State Federation Awards
The name of a member who has performed meritorious service may, by a two-thirds consent of the WCC Executive Board, be placed on the State Honor Roll.
The Order of the Lily was established to recognize the continuing outstanding efforts of those members who have previously been placed on the Honor Roll. Each recipient receives a certificate and pin. Her name is inscribed in the Order of the Lily book, which is available for viewing at NJSFWC Headquarters.
Memories of a Cranbury Woman’s Club Member
The Woman's Club of Cranbury--what thoughts and memories float through my mind when I say those words--words that have infinite meaning!
I picture friends, friendships begun in and nurtured by the Woman's Club, friends with whom we have laughed, chatted, planned, worked, sympathized, dreamed, and had fun with!
I am touched when I realize the many Cranbury young people who have furthered their education, thanks to our scholarships, and now those scholarships are also enabling women to pursue interrupted studies.
I picture the Cranburyites and visitors whose hearts have been lifted by the beauty of the flowers and greens regularly planted in the barrels--barrels placed around town many years ago by the Woman's Club.
I am gratified when I review the little and big blessings performed for the sick, the needy, the elderly, and the military.
I am impressed by the personal growth many have experienced as they have found themselves in leadership positions.
I smile when I observe the happy celebration at the annual Christmas tree lighting.
I am thrilled when I enumerate the many, many books--serious, entertaining, and international--that have been read and then discussed in a group.
I sense the personal warmth we have felt as together we have been entertained and informed at both our general and department meetings!
And my mind reverts to the Cranbury Reading Group, formed over 100 years ago, and its evolving into this segment of a national organization that has made a vital contribution to our country--The General Federation of Women's Clubs. What a privilege to be part of it!
