Womens Day at the New York State Fair in Syracuse
By Communications Committee

The Women's Day at the Fair event was held on August 31, 2011 and it was sold out!  Of the total attendees, 20 NYS Women, Inc. members participated.

A "Mini Fair" hosted women’s support agencies, including the WISE Center, Maternal Child Services, and Go Red for Women, plus the Women’s Hall of Fame.

The morning program was presented by Christine Moulton, director of the Women’s Hall of Fame, who introduced the October 2011 inductees. Yvonne Conte presented an upbeat program, which included this insight: “Of 100 men, one is a leader; the other 99 follow the woman.”
