YBPW to Honor Catinella as ‘Woman of the Year’
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio – The Youngstown Business & Professional Women club will honor the Rev. Gayle Catinella, rector of St. John’s Episcopal Church, as its “Woman of the Year” Oct. 15 at the Lake Club. The dinner event takes place in conjunction with National Business Women’s Week.

Proceeds from the event will benefit the Dr. Anne McMahon Scholarship Award, which is present to a female student pursuing her education at Youngstown State University. Tickets cost $55. To make reservations, contact Rene Butler, YBPW first vice president, at [email protected].
