Today, the round table explores the journey of women as they focus on contributing to everyday living and problem solving in all facets of life.</p><p>The theme selected for this year&#8217;s event is &#8220;My Journey to the Present Day&#8221; presented by six women from the community who will relate their personal journeys through life. The presenters are: are: Mayor Denise Adams, Jean Marie Conroy Bantell, Ann Hoyga, Marilyn Krall, Lisa Mazzarella, and Sister Kieran Williams, I.H.M.</p><p>Palmina Pavlico and Ellen Mondlak are co- chairing this event.
