News from The Double Oak Women’s Club
Passport to Our Past: A Culinary Celebration of Our Heritage!
We’re giving the Double Oak Women’s Club March 17th meeting a fun twist and turning it into a Mini Epcot - style global experience! Instead of celebrating just one country, we’ll be traveling the world together without leaving Double Oak - by honoring the diverse heritages represented within our club. It will be a lively, interactive global happy hour in an authentic and tasty way!
We’re aiming to feature 10–15 countries, each hosted by a small team of members who will create a cozy, immersive country table inspired by their heritage with bite-sized tastes, signature sips, fun facts, and memorabilia that brings each country to life. On March 17th you’ll receive your very own “passport” and rotate through countries in small groups every five minutes—collecting stamps, sampling flavors from around the world, and learning something new about one another country along the way. Dressing in your country’s attire is highly encouraged, and yes—there will be many prizes!
We can’t wait to see where in the world we’ll travel together. Let’s get this journey started by texting Mary Johnson at 972-890-2509 with your name and the country of your heritage. Adventure awaits!
The 2026 Connie Gall Scholarship Application is now available. The Double Oak Women’s Club is dedicated to helping graduating seniors from our community who are continuing his/her education.
