GENERAL MEETING: Tuesday, January 28, 2014

General Meetings are a time to welcome visitors, hear guest speakers and discuss club business. All residents of Greater Winston-Salem are invited to join us. General Meetings are held at Trinity Presbyterian Church, 1416 Bolton Street (just off Silas Creek Parkway via the Bolton Street exit) at 10AM on the fourth Tuesday of each month, except August and December.

General Meeting Bad Weather Policy: In the event of bad weather, our policy is to follow the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County School policy: If school is on a two-hour delay, we will meet at the regular time; if school is cancelled, then our meeting is cancelled.

Presenter: Vickie S. Morrison, Rural Hall NC, on “Human Trafficking”
            Vickie Morrison is a lifelong, active member of St. James United Methodist Church, and has been Spiritual Growth Coordinator for the Winston-Salem District. She currently serves as the Social Action Coordinator for the Yadkin Valley District of the United Methodist Women. Through her job with the UMW she has educated herself on the issue of human trafficking, traveling to organizations and local churches to bring awareness to this issue.

            She is employed as a claims adjuster for a large insurance carrier and has worked for the same company for 14 years.
