Spenga Sisterhood Event

Thank you to Spenga in Downers Grove!  Not only did they donate to our Strike Out event, but they offered our group a free class to try it out!  Thank you to our members who came out to our sisterhood event on May 7, 2017.  We all lived to tell about it!

Strike Out Arthritis Brunch and Raffle

Thank you to everyone that attended our very first Strike Out Arthritis Brunch and Raffle on April 29, 2017, at Hopvine Brewing Company in Aurora.  It was a huge success!  Special thanks go to Natalie R. and her committee that organized the event as well as all of the sisters who donated basket items.

Jessie W.-G. shared wonderful information about AOII's partnership with the Arthritis Foundation.

2016 Jingle Bell Run

In December, we participated in our local Jingle Bell Run with sisters from Lake County and Chicago South Suburban Alumnae Chapters.  The weather was chilly but seasonably mild which made for a lovely event to support the Arthritis Foundation.

Vicky hosted a tailgate party afterward with her yummy hot cider, finger sandwiches, and snacks.  Thank you, Vicky!
