President’s Message

Hi Ladies,

COVID-19 has definitely changed our daily lives. While we all are processing this event and the necessary adjustments we all have made, I urge you all to lead with a kind heart and don’t feed into the negativity. I pray that each of you and your families remain safe through this pandemic. Please stay home as much as possible, wash your hands, don’t touch your face and don’t hoard toilet paper!

I have been inundated at work, and have been asking Louisa and Hanna to handle more SISLT business. I am not able to check my emails as often, if you need immediate assistance please reach out them.

When this is all over, I hope that as a community we can rally around our local businesses and bring this town back to life.

Be Well,
President Jenn

Here’s an idea! Sew mask covers!

I have been hearing from several people about Soroptimist taking on the task of making masks for emergency and hospital workers. Penney Leezy from Washoe checked with local hospitals to see if they would be accepting of these homemade masks and received some positive feedback to use them as covers for their filtered masks to allow longer use.
