On April 26 the group will host their Mad Hatter's event, which is an annual favorite.
This event is the biggest fundraising event for the club and will be held at the fairgrounds in Lakeport.
It promises to be a fun event with a baseball theme of “Take Me Out to the Ballgame.”
As always, there will be beautiful baskets of donated items to raffle off, a silent auction and a live auction as well as a delicious luncheon.
The ladies are preparing their favorite ballcaps for the hat parade and I'm sure there will be prizes for some of the most creative entries.
All of this is done in order to provide donations to many worthy projects in the Lake County community.
This year, the group has made donations to the Military Funeral Honors Team, Lake Family Resource Center, Toys for Tots, Operation Tango Mike, high school athletic programs, three $1,200 scholarships and more.
To reach their goal of supporting the community the ladies will be soliciting donations from many businesses and individuals in order to offer beautiful baskets and items for the silent and live auctions.
Anyone interested in supporting this worthwhile project is welcome to contact any Lake County Women's Civic Club member or call Tricia Frazer at 702-325-5675.

The Redwood Empire Food Bank and Lake County Democrats are combining their efforts during the month of February to specifically increase the supply of healthy and easy to serve peanut butter.
The peanut butter drive is aptly named “Spread the Love.” Every jar donated will make a difference.
In collaboration with the Redwood Empire Food Bank and for the convenience of donors, Lake County Democrats have established drop off sites at homes in many of our local communities. Those sites, which include Kelseyville Presbyterian Church, are found on https://lakecountydemocrats.org/.
Just take your donation of peanut butter, no glass jars please, to any of the designated sites. Any kind of nut butter and other nonperishable food items are welcome.
At the end of February, Lake County Democrats will deliver the donated food to the Redwood Empire Food Bank. Distribution of collected food will take place at the Redwood Empire Food Bank’s established sites and schedules around the lake. That information is found on refb.com.
Participation by a variety of organizations is encouraged. Those who attend regularly scheduled club or social meetings and religious services are encouraged to plan a peanut butter collection during the month of February.
Items collected can then be taken at any time to one of the drop off sites posted on lakecountydemocrats.org.
Providing high protein nutrition, while reducing food insecurity among our community members, is something everyone can support.
