Dear Sisters,

It appears that we around Fond du Lac will not have a white Christmas this year. But, one can only hope!
  

Our State Board meeting will be held Saturday, January 22, 2022, at the Nitty Gritty in Sun Prairie. I am hoping that every chapter will be represented at this meeting. We start at 9:00, break for lunch, and finish shortly after. Not only do we conduct business but we usually manage to have a few laughs along the way. The bad weather day is January 29.  I sincerely hope you can make it!
  

The Regional North Central Conference will be held in Frankenmuth, MI, July 17-21, 2022, at the Bavarian Lodge Inn. You can still make reservations. When you call, 1-855-652-7200, use Group # 12R29J for a better rate. Talk with your sisters about carpooling, and/or ask about it at our January Board meeting.  I understand that the Bavarian Lodge Inn is very family friendly, with lots to do for the children. So, it could be a family vacation!
 

For most of us, the tree is up and decorated, cookies and candy made, presents bought, wrapped, and under the tree, cards and letters mailed, room decorations done, outside decorations finished, concerts and programs are being enjoyed, stockings are hung, (well in our case, we need to wait until the last minute as we have a naughty pup that just may go looking for candy in someone else's stocking!), and the meal is planned and preparations are being made (our turkey is being brined). I hope I didn't leave anything out!  Now, we need to remember the real reason this is all, or some of it being done, and that is to celebrate the birth of Jesus.  Christians and non-Christians seem to love this time of year, and we also need to remember to share in the love, joy, and peace of this most important event.
