Is Your Name LOIS ?

What’s in a Name? Lots if you’re a Lois The Northeast Ohio Chapter of the Lois Club (NEOLois Club) had its first meeting on November 14, 2003 There were 11 women named Lois at the first event.  Since then, the group has grown to its current membership of just under 40 members this year. The ladies decided to continue with these luncheons on the same schedule at the National clubs, as there are several across the country, including Canada, which is on the 5th Tuesday of the month. Generally, there are 4 such days in each year, and occasionally there are 5. There are Lois Club groups on Facebook too!  An annual convention is scheduled in different locations throughout the states that presents an opportunity to travel, sight see, and meet others who share the name of Lois. This event is open to friends and family.

Our next luncheon meeting is October 29, 2024 at 12:30 PM at Mahle’s Restaurant on Detroit in Westlake. If you’re a Lois, call 216-676-5399 to RSVP & join us.  You are welcome to bring a guest.

Presently, the NEO Lois Club is operating by committee consisting of long-time members, sharing responsibilities. For more information you can email us at Laosb625@gmail.com, or call Lois McNabb at 216-676-5399. Annual dues are $10.00 per person and with that you will receive the Newsletter which will be mailed a month before each luncheon.
