The Yamaska Valley Optimist Club (YVOC) is back with its first in-person event for International Women’s Day since 2019 and the non-profit organization is changing things up this year through a collaboration with the Knowlton Players.
Lucy Davis, member of both the YVOC and the Knowlton Players, told CIDI that the group is ready to get back to celebrating with the community with a “Guess Who” style event.
Davis explained that actresses with the Knowlton Players will be taking on the character of a woman that has inspired them or made a difference, and the audience will have the opportunity to figure out who they are.
Besides bringing “something different, something fun” for the community, Davis noted that the event serves as a fundraiser for the YVOC – an all women’s club – to continue its work in supporting the youth of Brome-Missisquoi.
