Busy Herrin women sponsor scholarships and install officers

The same chapter held Founders Day with Xi Rho at Travelodge Marion and honored Girl of the Year recipients. Junior and other club installations were announced, including Herrin Junior Woman's Club and Marion clubs, plus BSP activities at Elaine Omega and Xi Rho chapters. A mother daughter banquet and mental health fundraiser were noted along with sewing club activities and an upcoming leader training session at the Farm Bureau building in Jonesboro.
