(NCL), the nation’s premier mother-daughter volunteer organization, recently hosted its annual Mother-Daughter Tea and Senior Recognition at Granite Bay Golf Club. More than 200 members attended, bringing together mothers and daughters from across the chapter.

In addition, Sydney Wilson (Junior) and Amanda Tenley (Sophomore) were awarded the Folsom Chapter Modelette Award. This distinction recognizes Ticktockers (daughters) who exemplify the NCL mission through a strong commitment to community service, leadership development, and cultural engagement.
