I’m always amazed at how one thing leads to another and then to another, until everything is interconnected in the most wonderful way. Our new board member Debra Lauzon, an attorney with Lauzon & Euler, is a case in point. Back in 1998, she founded the Women in Business () Committee of the Manhattan Beach Chamber of Commerce (MBWIB). Earlier this year, I was touched and humbled when friend Kathy Reiker nominated me – and MBWIB named me – as the Heart and Soul Honoree at the annual Women in Business conference (incidentally, the next conference is scheduled for April 19, 2009 – you can find out more and register here. It was one of the best things that’s ever happened to the Crown Jewel Club – a huge door opened wide.
To make a good thing better, not only did Debra come to our year-end party for Crown Jewel club graduates, but she brought her daughter, Marie, who happens to play basketball at Mira Costa High School. And not only did Marie come, but she brought many of her teammates, who volunteered to help out at the party. Today, Debra oversees our sponsor-a-girl program, among other Board duties. I am so grateful that she and other talented women have lent their talents and time so generously to the Crown Jewel Club.
