Celebrating women whose lives, talents and passions have shaped the Cedar Valley Community!
Every year, the Cedar Valley
Women of Persimmon event celebrates women in the greater Cedar Valley area
who make important contributions to our daily lives.
These individuals’ lives, talents and passions have shaped the Cedar Valley
community; though many of these acts go unnoticed. Since 2007, the YWCA of
Black Hawk County has strived to recognize the accomplishments of Cedar
Valley Women and honor them for their actions. The luncheon celebration has
grown each year averaging more than 150 people.
Cedar Valley Women of Persimmon candidates exemplify the YWCA mission and
through their work, their role in the community and their influence have
made a difference. Please take this opportunity to nominate a friend,
relative or colleague for this special honor. Winners will be recognized at
our luncheon on Thursday, April 8, 2010 at 11:30 a.m. at the Sky Event
Centre.
Nominations must be delivered, e-mailed or mailed by Friday, February 19,
2010 to Lucinda Mohr, Executive Director, YWCA of Black Hawk County, 425
Lafayette, Waterloo, IA 50703 or
lmohr@ywcabhc.org.
