Hannah Timbol, president of the Kauai Filipino Women’s Club, said one of her goals was to improve and increase the club’s membership.
The result was the inaugural Ladies in Red post-Valentine’s Day luncheon.
Sunday, nearly 100 ladies and their gentlemen escorts celebrated the second Ladies in Red luncheon at the Courtyard by Marriott at Coconut Beach, chaired by Julienne Mateo, who was installed as the club’s secretary.
“This is pretty funny because I did not know much about the club,” said Desiree Duclayan-Parsonson, a new member who borrowed her children’s graduation wear for the fashion show. “But this is right up my alley. I love this kind of stuff.”
Timbol said the signature event for the Kauai Filipino Women’s Club is the annual Terno Ball, which will celebrate its 50th anniversary later this year.
“We want to get the youth involved and add their strength and energy to the club,” Timbol said. “To the elders, don’t leave us, but instead, serve as mentors for our youth.”
She said the Kauai Filipino Women’s Club has a membership of 340 members.
