February 7, 2024
From Teresa Phillips, 100+ Woman Who Care
Shown above is Monett’s all-female Scout Troop 38G, recipients of the fourth quarter 2023 100+ Women Who Care donation. The troop gave a presentation on their salt mine camping trip which was funded by the donation.
The 2024 inaugural round of donations from the local 100+ Women Who Care group has been allocated to the Monett Historical Society. Collaborating with Monett High School’s Missouri Literature and Composition class, a GOCAPS strand capstone project, and SRTC’s graphic design and construction classes, the museum will unveil 19 new exhibits by May, thanks to the generous contributions. The total donations for this quarter reached $3,000, with an anticipated matching grant of $1,500. Additionally, during the meeting, members were treated to a presentation by Monett’s all-female Scout Troop 38G, sharing their enriching salt mine camping trip funded by the previous quarter’s winning donation.
