GTW New Circle Organization Meeting

Tuesday, April 30th
6:30 – 8:30pm
(Doors open at 6:15)
Valentina’s Bistro & Bakery
1041 Sutton Way, Grass Valley

Three new circles will be meeting to organize themselves:  getting their e- lists together, choosing a future meeting place, date and time, deciding their focus/purpose.  Here’s a chance to be part of creating a circle from it’s inception.

Mothers, grandmothers, aunties, sisters, friends: If you have an interest in creating a circle to work with young girls to empower them and to create a Rites of Passage Ceremony, you need to be at this meeting.  There were excellent ideas and possibilities brought up at the Circle Creation meeting.  The energy is there to make this circle a reality.

Kathleen McIntire offered the use of space at her Moon Bear Sanctuary for anyone wishing to continue the film circle.  Now is the time to step up if you have an interest in viewing and sharing powerful films for women.

An interest was expressed in having a circle that would address women’s sexuality and the factors that affect it.  If this is of interest to you, please come and be part of creating the circle.

Women of Gather the Women of Nevada County Creating the Gazelle Spiral attended Sister Giant along with 1500 women. Marilyn Nyborg, GTW and GTWNC co-founder, and Heidi Hall, Nevada County resident running for Congress, were interviewed by Glad.is.Glad.is and friends Jaquelyn Richey (ChakWave) and Elizabeth Yochim (Participlay)attended Marianne Williamson’s Sister Giant in Los Angeles. We were so inspired by the movement that Marianne calls “Soul Force”, and by the women and men taking part in the day (at the live event, through streaming, or in social media) that we felt moved to put together this recap. Whether you call it New Feminism, Soul Force, or the Rise of the Feminine – there is a definite energy behind this movement and we’re excited to see what the future holds.

Leaders spoke, new leaders emerged, voices found, connections made.
We heard how one action can begin a movement.

Gather the Women of Nevada County marched  with the Business and Professional Women of Nevada County and the American Association of University Women in the Constitution Day Parade to urge women to use the power of their vote to make a difference.  While GTW is not a political organization, we do know that for women’s issues to be addressed appropriately in this country, women need to be in political leadership.  We can only get women there by our votes.

The Circle Creation Meeting had awesome results this year. Out of it has come opportunities for community action, personal growth, delving into Herstory, women’s film and more.

Please look through all the Circles. There must be at least one that resonates with you. You do have the time to make that commitment to your Self and other women. It’s a matter of choice and priorities.

We are excited to see how this year unfolds for us and the differences that will be made in our lives and those we touch. Let’s Gather the Women!
