P.E.O. Chapter EP sisters, Diane Ewing and her committee are getting in the groove and have chosen Harmony of Sisterhood as the theme for the annual Luncheon and Fashion Show to be presented on March 9, 2018. The air will be filled with harmony as the SaddleBrooke Barbershop Chorus will be blending their harmony for our musical enjoyment!

Stein Mart, with stores on North Stone and East Broadway, will be featuring their 2018 spring collection at the Fashion Show which will take place in the MountainView Ballroom. The doors will open at 11:00 a.m. and the luncheon, featuring a citrus salad with chicken, will be served at 11:30 a.m. Tickets are $32 per person and sales will begin on Thursday, January 11, 2018. They may be purchased at the SaddleBrooke TWO Administrative Offices located at 38735 South MountainView Boulevard, in the MountainView Clubhouse complex.

Philanthropic Education Organization, beneficiary of the proceeds from the ticket sales, supports women from high school through adulthood who wish to further their education. The grants, loans and scholarships are awarded to deserving women in the U.S.A. as well as internationally. The P.E.O. Sisterhood also supports Cottey College, a liberal arts college for women located in Nevada, Missouri.

P.E.O. chapters support the educational and charitable funds of the P.E.O. Sisterhood, but are not classified as charitable by the IRS. Therefore, donations to individual chapters do not meet the IRS requirements for a charitable income tax deduction. P.E.O. shall not be liable in any way for any goods and services supplied by third-party vendors or public establishments.
