Karen: Great write up and the conference really was one of the best, great speakers, entertainment, meeting old and new friends. I have one comment, clubs need to be more open and inviting of the general membership concerning conferences and conventions, many members think they are only for the officers in clubs and feel out of place and univted, if they think of attending. If I didn’t have such great people encouraging me to attend when I was just a regular member, I wouldn’t be so involved today. Lots of members feel these are by invitation only, we need to let the general membership know they are welcome and encouraged to participate in all levels of the GFWC.

Thanks, Karen, for keeping us all updated. We are so fortunate to have you as our GFWC Illinois webmaster…and I so appreciate the manner in which you have guided and informed other clubs, districts and states with their web pages.
I’m always so thrilled when I hear from a fellow club member that you have assisted them in promoting their activities via the computer!
Know that you are needed…and appreciated.

Nice write-up about the Conference, Karen. Your photos are pretty good, too. It was a super Conference. I hope that gets more members out to the next Conference. The entertainment was probably the best we have had in years.

Karen – these are great pictures and you are right, it was a terrific conference. I have a great picture of you and as soon as my husband is done monkeying around with our pictures on the computer, I will send it your way. Only fair that you get the candid camera treatment once in a while!
