Annual Spring Information Session and Fundraiser
Please save the date for a fundraiser at Buffalo Wild Wings (6728 Eastman Ave in Midland) on Wednesday, April 24th. Be sure to print and bring the flyer (above) with you so that our group receives 20% of the proceeds! You and your family are welcome to come and go as you please, but we will be holding an information session from 6-7 pm to talk about Mid-Michigan SWE, our mission, our committees, how we’re involved in the community, and what events we have planned for the future! Please RSVP to Laura Maiers (LMaiers@dow.com) if you plan to attend the info session! We look forward to seeing you there!
SWE Earth Day Booth at MCFTA:
We are looking for 3-4 volunteers to help at the 14th Annual Earth Day Expo on Saturday, April 27th at the Midland Center for the Arts from 10 AM – 2 PM. The theme for the expo is “Take Note: The Chemistry of Paper”, and SWE will have a booth with several activities about the paper and colors! If you can only stay for part of the time, no problem, we would still love to have you. Lunch will be provided. Please email Amy Chang (a.chang@dow.com) by April 24th if you are interested, and more details will follow.
