Dear Sisters.
As
January goes, we've had very cold weather. I'm happy that at least we
have a snow cover for the plants. The birds have been keeping us busy
keeping the feeder full. I do enjoy seeing the different kinds of birds,
and the feeder is outside the computer room, so I can look out for
inspiration and an excuse to take a short break!
Our
State Board meeting was held on Saturday, January 22. I feel that we
had a very successful meeting. The State Convention will be held April
22-23 at the Wintergreen Resort in Wisconsin Dells. I encourage you to
attend. Come Friday and get to know your sisters from around the state a
little better- always a fun time. Most of the planning is completed,
and thanks to all the sisters who have volunteered to make this
convention a success.
Now
for the most wonderful, peachy-keen news!! Theresa Ness, Zeta chapter,
will be our State President! Joanne Loy, Psi chapter, will be our
President-Elect! I am so, so happy about this and I know that I have a
lot of company. Thank you Theresa and Joanne!Because of your
willingness to serve, Wisconsin will continue to do great things!
According
to new International rules, chapter officers need to be installed by/on
their April meeting. The deadline for the form of new officers is due
May 1.
There
is still time to make reservations for the Regional North Central
Conference to be held in Frankenmuth, MI, July 17-21. When you call,
1-855-652-7200, use Group #12R29J for a better room rate.
I
hope you will plan on attending our State Convention at the Wintergreen
Resort in Wisconsin Dells. It is a fun and learning experience, and
meeting and getting to know sisters from around our state is an added
bonus!
