Too late to make the Spring 2011 newsletter:

• News from CWI Honorary CWI Member Mary Pat Kelly: "Galway Bay" is now available in paperback from Amazon.com. If all goes right, we'll also be able to view "Galway Bay" as a television mini-series in the near future. We can also watch for a sequel to "Gallway Bay" which will be titled "Kelly Green."
  
• CWI Board member Maureen Smith represented CWI at the Women of Concern - Chicago's "Brigid Awards" luncheon as a guest of the Irish American Heritage Center. Concern is an amazing organization that helps women throughout the world, and we salute the 3 award-winners Justice Anne Burke, Patricia Blunt Koldyke, and Terrie McDermott, all truly incredible women.
• Next newsletter will feature our truly awesome Brigid's Day/Imbolc tour.
