Yard Sale A Huge Success!!!

Leslie King, incoming president, and Julie Kause, incoming southwest Virginia state board representative, have a little fun while getting ready for the yard sale.

The AAUW Wythe Branch annual fundraiser yard sale was a huge success! We raised over $1000 on June 2 for our scholarship fund.

Many thanks to Anita Aymer and her husband Al for all their hard work and the use of their garage and yard for the sale! And also, thanks to all the many wonderful members who helped make this event happen! Our hats are off to you!
