Josh updated us on the NAP report as well as the latest information on the National Training Conference. After a buffet lunch, our presenter Jeannette Williams, PRP, gave an unusual and entertaining workshop entitled “Let’s Have a Meeting!” What made it unusual and challenging was that you did not know when you would be called on to participate until the last second, so you had to pay close attention. After the workshop, Jeannette also installed all of the officers using the theme “Cheerios” where all the incoming officers received different flavor boxes of cheerios. Thanks to photographer Bob Williams who took pictures of both the Northern Lights (NLP) and Saint Paul (SPU) Units! The convention was adjourned sine die at 2:15 p.m. 5/5/2018 State Annual Convention
