Springfield
(MO) Branch President: Samantha Hammons |
| Springfield, Missouri's third largest city, is located in Greene County in the southwest quadrant of the state. The Springfield AAUW Branch was formed in 1908 and celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2008 with a luncheon meeting held at Drury University. Marsha Koch, president of AAUW of Missouri, welcomed guests and introduced the branch members. Shirley Breeze, director of the Southwest Central Region (AR, KS, MO, OK, TX), presented the branch with a certificate of recognition and congratulations from the national office. Following the luncheon, a PowerPoint presentation of The First 100 Years was shown in Olin Library. |
