Dear Chattahoochee Plantation Women’s Club Past Presidents,
We are so thankful for you and the service you gave to our community by starting, supporting, embracing, and growing our women’s club through the years. We are turning 50 this year! You have helped us plant, bloom, connect, light, care, celebrate, hope, and so many other themes that caught our attention and encouraged us. On September 13, 2019, at 10:30 am, we will host a “Garden Party” themed luncheon/fashion show for our first meeting of the 2019-2020 year. This event will be a celebration of our history and will honor YOU, our past Presidents.
We need your help to fill in our history. We will have display boards for each decade of our history and a running video of past photos at the meeting. We are also working on a timeline of notable events and activities of the past 50 years. Our meetings this year will have programs based on the favorite programs from our past, and we will select a major charity from those we have supported to sponsor this year through fundraising and will select a few others to support with tangible collections. Please answer the questions below, so we can compile our history. (Please use reverse for more detail.)
What year were you President of CPWC?
Did you have a theme for the year?
What were a few of the activities you remember doing with the club?
What was the charity you supported doing your presidency?
What were three of your most memorable programs?
Give a favorite memory of your year.
Is there anything else you want us to know about your year?
We need photos, programs, letters, any memorabilia you may have that we could use for display. Do you have any items we could use? Let us know, and we will arrange pick up.
Also, we will have a fashion show at this “Garden Party” event in September based on some fashions from the decades. Would you be willing to be a model?
Please complete the questions and send in the enclosed, stamped envelope by June 10 to:
Janie Kissling
172 Atlanta Country Club Drive
Marietta, Georgia 30067
Call me with any questions at 404-483-2838.
We are looking forward to hearing from you and can’t wait to celebrate and visit with you on September 13!
Sincerely,
Janie Kissling

2018 CPWC Charity Gala
featuring
Yacht Rock Schooner
The Charity Committee of the Chattahoochee Plantation Women’s Club is thrilled to announce its annual charity gala event will take place
Saturday, April 28 at 7:00 p.m.
under the stars at 100 Atlanta Country Club Drive. The gala will feature a private concert by Yacht Rock Schooner and food catered by celebrity ‘cheftainer’ Alex Reethof. The charity gala will benefit Gathering Industries. The charity committee is led this year by the smooth team of Carie Buchanan, Tina Engberg, and Jennifer Risey. This year’s event is an all-inclusive charity dinner and concert for the glitterati focusing on the evening’s gastronomic delicacies and phenomenal entertainment. The dress code is “Farrah Fabulous,” and if you still have your Famolares, wear ‘em. Entry to the event is limited, managed online, and is expected to reach capacity.
Yacht Rock Schooner is all about 72 degrees and smooth jams from the sunny beaches of 1978-1984, when pop music used slash cords and craft to create wrinkle-free sing-along songs that won’t spill your drink. Songs by Michael McDonald, Kenny Loggins, The Doobie Brothers, Hall & Oates, Lionel Richie, The Bee Gees, Steely Dan, Jackson Browne and more. Expect to dance like it’s 1984.
Chef Alex Reethof has been in the culinary and hospitality industry for more than three decades and hosted his own cooking show “Back to the Table.” Alex has been a chef for fine dining establishments from Seattle to Sarasota and owns a successful ‘cheftainment’ business. He is the driving force behind “Good Eating Great Cause,” a culinary tour and competition for SafePath.
Gathering Industries is a nonprofit organization co-founded by Lake Dawson and Alex Reethof that provides management and training skills programs for homeless individuals in the culinary arts to make them employable. Their mission, through training, is to help those individuals that seek a second chance. Working in collaboration with a host of Atlanta restaurants and Atlanta Missions, Gathering Industries thoroughly trains homeless individuals in all facets of the restaurant business with an in-depth emphasis on culinary skills and food handling. Gathering Industries provides kitchen training through their box/catered lunch program. The Gathering prepares and rehabilitates the homeless with dignity for future jobs and helps them to become self-sufficient.
Originating in 1970 as a garden club, The Chattahoochee Plantation Women's Club has more than 220 members in our community. The club promotes social and community-service oriented activities and has numerous weekly Interest Groups.
Funds raised from the charity benefit will be directed to Gathering Industries’ purchase of new kitchen equipment and refrigeration as well as a food truck.

Savvy Women will meet on the third Thursday of each month for social time, a guest speaker, Q&A and a current event wrap up. Topics for Savvy Women might include identity theft, starting a small business, buying a few stocks (and knowing when to sell), the skinny on reverse mortgages, long term care insurance, home security and current events ...just to name a few. Our kickoff meeting is this Thursday, September 17, 2016 at 7 p.m. at the home of Chris Cashman. The meeting topics will be driven by the interests of the Savvy Women but for starters ...Jennifer Acuff, CPA,PFS, CFP from True Wealth Management will speak. Her expertise is Charitable Planning Strategies, Strategies for High Net Worth Individuals, Widowers/ Divorcees and is well versed in many other financial matters. Next month on Thursday, October 15, Roger Ward, CPA, PFS, CFP will speak on personal investing and retirement planning. We hope you come to our first meeting and more importantly we hope that you will be challenged in your thinking, learn something new that will make life easier and find at least one new friend along the way.
