Realizing that the aged should not be forgotten, the girls visited the Home for the Aged as one of their many activities . With religion playing an important part in the success of the club, the girls wor- shipped with the Grace Episcopal Church congregation during Girls' Week. During the holidays, they sent Christ- mas packages to Peakes Girls' School in Peakes, Virginia. The club held an an- nual Christmas Ball, toured the state cpaitol in Richmond, Virginia, and, as a final activity during their busy year, sponsored the school's Valentine mail- box. The Club's motto, Lifting as we climb, served as a guide for planning the year's program. Members were al- ways aware of the needs of others, and they made their awareness felt through the many humanitarian projects which they sponsored. '
