At the Clermont Woman’s Club October meeting, Wendy Proctor, Major Gift Officer with Camp Boggy Creek, gave a presentation to the members. Camp Boggy Creek, located in Eustis, is a year-round medical camp for children with serious illnesses. Co-founded by actor/philanthropist Paul Newman and General H. Norman Schwarzkopf, the camp offers week-long summer sessions and family retreat weekends at no charge to the children or families. The Clermont Woman’s Club was proud to be able to donate to such a deserving cause.
The Clermont Woman’s Club is a Federated Woman’s Club chartered in 1927. It is a non-profit service organization and by fundraising throughout the year, they are able to support international, national and local charities. They meet on the first Tuesday of each month at 12:30 pm at their clubhouse, 655 W Broome St;, & 7th St., Clermont. For information see www.clermontwomansclub.org.
