                                                                        WHAT  IS  IBC ?
IBC is the St. Louis Area Inter-Branch Council of AAUW. There are 6 AAUW branches throughout St. Louis and
St. Charles.  They are listed below.  The IBC is made up of representatives from each of these branches.  
Officers for the IBC are chosen from these branch representatives;   a President, a Secretary and a Treasurer.  
The overall purpose of the Inter-Branch Council (IBC) is to meet with area AAUW branch members, get
acquainted and share ideas and strategies to take back to our own branches.  Besides the IBC sponsored  
Downtown Lunch and the  Adelante book discussion group, the Annual IBC  “Spring Fling”  is held in early
March.  This is a very nice luncheon with a program and speaker for AAUW members and friends from all 6
branches.  Responsibilities for the IBC Spring fling are rotated among the 6 branches each year.  
The IBC also selects an outstanding branch member from applications submitted by each branch to receive
the Barbara Lackritz Award.  This AAUW Service Award is presented at the IBC Spring Fling.  This year the
Honoree was Dr. A. Patricia Shores, of the Ballwin-Chesterfield Branch.  To learn more, CLICK THIS LINK:
