Portland Updates!


Hello Everyone!

It's almost here...can you believe it? A little over 20 days and we will be attending the 2009 33rd Biennial LWML Convention! I am just finishing up a few last minute plans, how about you? Our zone has had the honor and privilege of making the Utah-Idaho District banner. District President Melody Rosenwinkel will be hoisting it high for us during the processional so watch for it! We hope you like it! I hope to have pictures up on the blog before we leave. I have some updates and information for you. If you have any questions about Portland please don't hesitate to contact me. If you are still thinking about going...do it! There is still plenty of time to register and the National LWML website makes it so easy. http://www.lwml.org/.

IMPORTANT: Utah/Idaho District Caucus Thursday June 25th at 4pm in room E142
