Sandy Lawrence & Sharon Zackula

Northern District Co-Representatives

The Northern District meeting is November 1, 12:00pm- 2:30AM at the Pohick Regional Library,  6450 Sydenstricker Rd, Burke.  Shirley Marshall will be talking about her book, A Radical Suffragist in Washington D.C. The book features letters from Elizabeth Kalb Green who worked and lived at the National Woman’s Party Headquarters from 1918 to 1921.  Her book will be available for purchase.  After Shirley’s talk, we will have a short break and then a business meeting where branches can talk about upcoming events. 

The Northern District consists of 10 branches: Alexandria, Arlington, Falls Church Area, Greater Manassas, McLean Area, Mt. Vernon, Reston-Herndon, Springfield-Annandale, Vienna Area, and Woodbridge.

An annual district meeting is held each fall, and there is also a meeting at the annual state conference for all district members attending the conference. In January/February there is a branch leaders’ meeting. Please contact either of us if you would like more information about the AAUW of Virginia’s Northern District branches.

Just a note that the Women’s History Museum has designed a number of virtual programs that they will present for a branch for $50.  You can learn more on their website: https://www.womenshistory.org/events/virtual-field-trips
