[DSM-Iowa] State convention

[Mary McGee]

Dear Becky,

              I’m already booked and I have three legislators willing to attend!  Now, if we can just get a schedule and registration forms!  I don’t know if LeRoy wants to come or not, so we’ll see.  I’m looking forward to it because I haven’t attended in six or seven years.  

Sincerely,

Mary

Well here is another one! I guess I have a lot to talk about today.

I just want to remind everyone that the state convention is coming up in September. The date will be September 15th and 16th. You will be needing to book your motel rooms soon. I have never been before, and I am looking forward to going. Come on everyone! Let’s do this. Let’s see if we can get all of our members to come. This convention is right here in our city! And we should all be able to participate.

Remember that Together with hope, love, and determination, Our dreams can be transformed in to reality. The key word here is together. Let’s work together as a chapter and make it happen.
