Well, Convention 98' is just around the corner. I hope everyone is prepared for the Convention activities and the competition. We'll have a busy schedule so try to be on time or you'll miss something important. In our business meeting we will need to select a convention site fo the year 2000, so come prepared to bid if you want to host the convention that year. We'll keep this short and sweet this time......got to start packing for Winston-Salem so I've got to go. I'll see you there and remember the Brotherhood and those who have gone on before us. They paved the way so that we might volunteer our services in the way we do today
Have you joined the Brotherhood? If you have not, you are missing out on a wonderful program. The Association has less than 50% of our members in the Brotherhood. It is your program for the benefit of your members. Talk with your members who are not in the Brotherhood and encourage them to join today. Are you planning to attend the Convention in Winston-Salem? It will be fun and the competition should be great. Hope to see you in Winston-Salem.
