USCPFA - SOUTHEAST FLORIDA CHAPTER - (formerly PALM BEACH COUNTY CHAPTER)

USCPFA - SOUTHEAST FLORIDA CHAPTER - (formerly PALM BEACH COUNTY CHAPTER)

Our name was changed at our April 30, 2011 meeting from "Palm Beach County, Florida Chapter" to "Southeast Florida Chapter" because we now have members in several Southeast Florida counties and we wanted to better reflect our membership with a more encompassing name.

We have at least 3 luncheon meetings a year to discuss projects and business activities. Our luncheons usually feature a presentation by various Chinese interests. We sponsor students with scholarships and recently contributed to our chapter member Marylou Brunetta's participation in the World Championship triathlon in Beijing, China being held in September, 2011. For several years we have sponsored a Chinese New Year GALA with performances by very talented local Chinese Artists which is directed by our chapter member, Monica Shang who is also one of the contributing artists.

OCTOBER 19, 2013 - SE FLA CHAPER OF USCPFA SPEAK AT PALM BEACH CHAPTER OF LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS MEETING

The Palm Beach Chapter of the League of Women Voters invited Co-Presidents Marge Ketter and David Pena, Gordon Hu and Monica Shang, all SE FL members, to speak at their annual meeting in October at which their focus was China. Every year the League picks a country to learn about and invite people from that country to educate its members about their country and people, and invite them to join and become interested in subjects of interest. This year was China. The luncheon was attended by about 50 League members who enjoyed our presentations so much they expressed an interest in taking a USCPFA tour. We are hoping the itinerary and price being worked out by the National Tour office will be attractive and exciting enough to introduce more people to the wonders of China.
