The following is a message from California Assemblymember Nancy Skinner, which we share as a follow-up for the call for nominations which we sent out earlier this year.
In honor of Women's History Month, we invited people throughout Assembly District 14 to nominate a woman from their community who has made a significant difference so that we could honor them at our Women of the Year Celebration.
From an amazing group of nominees we selected one woman from every community in AD 14 and one woman to represent the whole district. We honored these outstanding women at a luncheon on March 6th at the UC Berkeley Alumni House.
Visit my website to learn more about our honorees.
The women we honored are:
2010 WOTY- Mabel Yee
Albany- Eileen Hadidian,
Berkeley- Susie Medak,
El Cerrito- Dorothy Crew Herzberg,
El Sobrante- Eleanor Loynd,
Emeryville- Nellie Hannon,
Kensington- Laurie Schumacher,
Lafayette- Anne Grodin,
Moraga- Ellen Beans,
Oakland- Leslie Ewing,
Orinda- Carrie Dern,
Pleasant Hill- Lesley Stiles,
Richmond- Laura Johnson,
San Pablo- Rosa Acosta.
I am honored to represent this amazing and diverse group of women who truly inspire our community.
If you have any questions about our Women of the Year Celebration or honorees please feel free to call my district office (510) 286-1400.
Sincerely,
Nancy Skinner
California Assemblymember, District 14
