IN (FOX19) - Kendal Miller, Switzerland County Tourism executive director and freelance photographer/writer, attended the 100th Anniversary Celebration and Awards Gala of the Woman’s Press Club of Indiana (WPCI). The event was held May 18 at the Hollyhock Hill Restaurant in Indianapolis.

WPCI was formed on Feb. 18, 1913, an organization of women writers, editors, publishers and activists who “saw the need for an organization to represent women’s interested in the corridors of the State Legislature and the columns of newspapers.” Today however, members consist of both women and men, and include professional communications in various media from across the state. The club’s mission remains the same—“to foster professional standards and advance the causes of communicators throughout the state.”
