PORT ANGELES – Port Angeles Councilmember Cherie Kidd is on her way to the United Nations International Women’s Day event in New York. Kidd was invited to represent senior women after winning the Ms. Senior Washington Pageant in 2017 and placing runner-up last year in the Ms. Senior Universe Pageant, and will be part of a delegation of five women.
Women will be coming from all over the world to International Women’s Day to rally around this year’s theme: Think Equal, Build Smart, Innovate For Change.
Kidd says she’ll be attending events all day Thursday and Friday, and flying home this weekend. Although much of her time has been scheduled, she says she’s showing up in New York with at least one item on her personal agenda.
