Marjie is off to New Zealand!
We extend heartfelt good wishes to Marjie and Michael Slater-Kaplan, who are moving to Hamilton, New Zealand on October 30th. This will mean terrific new opportunities and adventures for both. Marjie has been our esteemed League president, State League Action Chair, LWVUS Lobby Corps member, and host for our Open World visitors. She has been our technology guru, mentor, and friend, and her emigration will leave a hole in our organization. Our loss is the Kiwis’ gain, and we wish her and Michael well.

Alberta Eidman
Honoring Baltimore County League Leader Alberta Eidman
By Betsy Sexton, Co-President, Baltimore County LWV
Congratulations to Alberta Eidman on her 90th birthday on October 29th!
Alberta was Baltimore County League President from 1991-1993 and Treasurer from 2000-2002. She initiated our very successful Focus on Contemporary Issues lecture series that ran from 2000-2007. Alberta was the first Baltimore County League online projects director/webmaster and co-founder of the Maryland League’s website. She saw the League’s Web presence at the local, state and national levels as a way to encourage our members and the public to become more informed and more active in the democratic process. She promoted online ListServes (online discussion groups) by which members can "learn, discuss, exchange information, and become grassroots activists."
We thank Alberta for her visionary leadership and boundless energy for the greater good.
