Business and Professional Women's Club Going Stroi After 29-Year History Her The Bowmanville Business & Professional Women's Club was chartered Tuesday evening, June 6th, 1950 and 22 members were initiated into the association of working women. With some new faces, and some stalwart faces the club is still active and functioning some 29 years later. According to a club spokesman, its ranks have fluctuated over the years but a strong nucleus in the club has kept it alive. Charter President of the club was Doris Robinson who at that time was a secretary at the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company. Other members of the original executive were, Mrs. Glenholme Hughes, Helen Tighe, Violet McFeeters and Helen Weddell. Current president of the Business & Professional Women's Club in Bowmanville is Helen Devitt who is an employee of the Royal Bank in Oshawa as a loans officer. The membership roll now stands at 37 working or retired business women. The club is not a service group but an association devoted to the welfare of all gainfully employed women. Though not community - service oriented, the members have, nevertheless, held various teas, fashion shows and other fund- raising ventures and the proceeds have been used for charitable purposes. For a number of years, the club organized an annual UNICEF tag day but when membership dropped off during the 1960's, the project had to be abandoned.
