Ever thought of
taking a midsummer trip to visit Laplanders in northern Sweden? How about
attending a mystery writer's conference on a cruise ship or going on a
painting tour of missions in Mexico? Sound
fascinating? The public is invited to attend the next branch meeting of the
Hingham Area Branch of the American Association of University Women and find
out about travel adventures that are all about enrichment and lifelong learning.
The meeting will take place Oct. 10, at 7 p.m., at Tufts Library, 46 Broad
St., Weymouth. Speaker
will be Rochelle Kruger, an Elderhostel Ambassador. Information will be
distributed by the not-for-profit organization about Elderhostel programs in North
America and the world. Elderhostel also
offers access to day trips to an astronomy observatory, art galleries,
concert halls and aquariums. The meeting is free and open to the public, and
all are encouraged to attend. The Hingham Area Branch of AAUW represents
woman from all areas of the South Shore.
AAUW seeks and welcomes new members who hold an associate
degree or equivalent, or bachelor's or higher degree
from a qualified educational institution. Undergraduates may join the branch
as AAUW student affiliates. AAUW members believe in the power of education to
change women's lives, and recognize that women's education means not only
attaining higher degrees, it also means becoming financially literate, daring
to take risks to grow and learn throughout life, and helping others reach
their potential.
