Edgemont Women's Club

We have a special gift for our community. Take the survey about the new lights on paper or online using your phones or our laptops and ipads. In exchange, get an In-N-Out Burger of your choice. The catering truck will be available from 7 to 9pm on October 11th ONLY. Many thanks to the efforts of UC Davis, the City of Moreno Valley and Edgemont Women's Club for making this possible.

Go by and checkout the replacement lighting at the Adrienne Mitchell Memorial Park at 22361 Bay Ave. Take the survey. This was made possible by the efforts of UC Davis, City of Moreno Valley and the Edgemont Women's Club.

Great news to report. The UC Davis Lighting Project Installation is complete at the Adrienne Mitchell Memorial Park. Thank you to those who participated in the pre-survey required. Now we need the community to evaluate what's been done.
SAVE THE DATE. Friday, October 11, 2024 In and Out Burger Truck will be available from 7pm to 9pm. Must complete the post survey regarding the lighting to receive a FREE Meal.
More information to come.

Many THANKS to those who participated in the survey process of the Adrienne Mitchell Park Lighting Project. According to both the City of Moreno Valley and the UC Davis Research Lighting Department, the installation process has taken longer than expected. It started in May and is expected to be completed by the second week of July. The follow-up survey process will begin three months after that, around October. We will be holding a community event so stay tuned.

Thank you for being patient with us while we sorted through some organizational issues. We are back, although our nonprofit is dark during the summer months of July and August. Renting the use of the facility is still available. If interested, call our President and Rental Coordinator Tylisha Julienne at (951) 478-7826.

Join us together with Soroptimist International of Moreno Valley MoVal Seniors Rock Moove & Groove, Walking with a Purpose and many others who are walking in support of Women empowerment and recognizing many amazing women. No need to pre-register. Just show up.

This has always been an enjoyable event. A perfect way to start the Christmas season. Let this be a gift to yourself which costs nothing.

If you volunteer for a local non-profit like us, take advantage of this networking opportunity.

Meet Beatrice who is another winner of the MoVal glasses offered during the Mayor's Challenge. It's people like her who helped us meet our goal to get the new lighting installed. December will be here before you know it.

GREAT NEWS. We were able to reach our goal of 200 surveys received online. Linda Swearingen is one of the many gift card winners who took time to complete the Adrienne Mitchell Memorial Park Lighting Survey online during the Mayor's Challenge. There were a total of 34 winners between May through October. What does this all mean? Adrienne Mitchell Memorial Park will be receiving replacement lighting. THANKS to the efforts of UC Davis who has been behind these efforts from day one. Next step- installation on or before the month of January. STAY TUNED.

Both Tylisha Julienne and Dr. Mary McBean, on behalf of their organizations, are hosting this amazing conference. Don't wait. Get your tickets NOW...

Our Mural REVEAL of our Matriarch Irene Kendall, was a success, THANKS to the artist Antonio. We learned from Irene's daughter Karla Kendall-Richmond about the History of the Edgemont Women's Club and the impact they made, led by Irene. Thanks also to our Mayor Ulises Cabrera who supported the project financially and has always supported the ARTS in our City.

Don't forget. All Moreno Valley residents are welcome. This is the Adrienne Mitchell Memorial Park at sun down in case you haven't gone by lately.

We are happy to report that our partnerships in the community continue to grow. Edgemont Women's Club adopted Edgemont Elementary. As you see, the President, Dr. Mary McBean, spoke to the students about her former position as a Registered Nurse and how important it is on following directions. Definitely a lesson the students can use.

We appreciate the partnership we have built with the Soroptimist International of Moreno Valley which allowed them to help collect surveys from the Edgemont Elementary school parents. They are still there so complete the survey, pickup some refreshments and be eligible to win a $25 restaurant gift card. They are there until 5pm.

We are excited to share with the Community, our Mural REVEAL in memory of our Matriarch Irene Kendall who made a major impact on the Edgemont area. We continue her legacy of service by working together with the City of Moreno Valley and UC Davis in replacing the lighting at the Adrienne Mitchell Memorial Park. Surveys to establish the need are required. If you live in the 92553 zip code area, join us OR follow this link https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Adrienne-Mitchell-Park

Edgemont Women's Club would like to set the record straight.
As a 501c3 non-profit charitable organization, we are required to be non-sectarian, non-commercial and non-partisan as it relates to political campaign activities.
Our objective is to represent, protect and advance the spiritual, educational, social and economic interests of the residents of Moreno Valley/Edgemont Community.
Having said that, the statement(s) made at the Tuesday, 5/2/23 City Council meeting about the Edgemont Women's Club supporting a proposed light-industrial/warehouse development in the residential area of Edgemont is not true and we have not accepted the $5000 donation offered by the Developer.
On a positive note, we are excited to share our involvement with UC Davis and the City of Moreno Valley regarding a Lighting Project scheduled for the Adrienne Mitchell Park in Edgemont. Stay tuned for more information.

We are excited to have entered into a contract with Muralist Antonio to sketch a photo of our Matriarch Irene Kendall. This is the BEFORE picture. Stay tuned for the AFTER.....

The Edgemont Women's Club was honored to receive a Proclamation from the Mayor and City Council in support of March being Women's Month and the Women of our Organization who have done so much for the Community. Emphasis was made regarding our Matriarch Irene Kendall, who was 100 years old when she passed and lived a life of service.
Receiving the Proclamation was l to r, Tylisha Julienne Vice President, Dr. Mary McBean President and Dolores Jempson Secretary.

Even with a threat of ugly weather, it didn't stop the crowds from coming to the Music and Arts Festival. Two hours left. Come join us. Edgemont Women's Club took the opportunity to educate our community, in partnership with Vaccinate All 58 about Knowing the Facts.

Do you live on the west side of Moreno Valley? Edgemont area? Our Councilmember Elena Baca-Santa Cruz will be available to speak with you during the Edgemont Women's Club meeting. MARK YOUR CALENDARS. Thursday, March 9th at 11:15am.
