In 1992, Veronika Bottos and her close-knit group of friends found themselves navigating the challenges of raising young children. They naturally became a strong support system for one another during those early years. By the summer of 1994, Veronika recognized that amidst the chaos of motherhood, they needed consistent "girlfriend" time. She took the initiative and started organizing monthly dinners out.
The original group—Veronika Bottos, Barbara Dettlinger, Danielle Emon, Debbie Emon, and Diana O'Connor—became the foundation of what has grown into a beloved tradition. As of 2022, these "OGs" are still part of the gathering, now joined by an additional 10 ladies who take turns planning the dates and locations. Veronika, however, continues to take the lead, managing the schedule and sending reminders, ensuring that this cherished group remains connected through the years.
