Dream big. Succeed big.
Soroptimist International of Coupeville will be offering three free seminars — Dream it, Be It: Career Support for Girls –– in March, with an eye on helping local young women prepare for their futures.
The sessions will be held at a yet to be determined spot, and registration is now open.
Classroom space is limited and it’s on a first-come, first-served basis, so girls and their parents are encouraged to pick up, fill out and return the necessary forms as soon as possible.
Registration applications can be found in the counseling center at Coupeville High School and can be returned there or to Shelli Trumbull at Cascade Insurance (404 S. Main).
The sessions will be:
Saturday, Mar. 5 – 10:00-2:30
Saturday, Mar. 12 – 10:00-2:30
Saturday, Mar. 19 – 9:00-3:30
Each session, which is designed for high school-aged girls, will include female business owners from the Central Whidbey community.
The program aims to empower young women to pursue career goals, with an emphasis on career opportunities, setting and achieving goals, overcoming obstacles and moving forward after setbacks.
