The 6th out of state convention took us to Burbank CA for the All-State California Convention hosted by the Southern California Council where the theme was "Life ~ Learning ~ Friendship Our Superpowers". Originally Dolly and I planned to go together and with a superhero theme we had our wardrobe accordingly. For Friday night we planned to wear a wonder woman t-shirt paired with a blue tutu with sh*te stars! And for Saturday we planned to be urban style super girls with a super girl t-shirt, jeans, red cowboy boots and red cowboy hat! Awesome!! The day before I was to head to Burbank, Dolly's husband hurt his back and she needed to stay home with him. Bummer! So I mentally prepped myself to meet the CA sisters on my own.

My plane arrived Friday around 6, so I arrived just before the Friday event was to start. While I was mentally calculating how much time it would take to check in and change into my tutu, I walked in the door and there in front of the conference room area was a sea of women wearing very lovely cocktail dresses. I thought, okay no tutu tonight! Fortunately, I had been on business travel that week and still have my work and dressy clothes which included a cocktail dress. Phew! Wardrobe crisis averted.

Dinner was lovely and I learned many things about the way things are done at CA conventions. I met a few lovely sisters, and they took me under their wings so to speak. It seems the tutu would remain in the suitcase.

Highlights of this convention were:
Friday after parties hosted by each of the 9 councils in CA serving cocktails such as Jello shots, mudslides and all manner of other adult beverages.

Saturday morning was an opening ceremony, and lunch was a more casual affair, so I donned my wonder woman shirt and jeans plus red cowboy boots.

What was so amazing to witness was the philanthropic theme that is shared amongst all 9 councils. At the Saturday and Sunday events they announced their collective donations to foundations. Cystic Fibrosis, Scleroderma, Lupas and Kidney Research. In total these councils donated a total of $163,783.00 to these 4 foundations! Truly amazing.

It was a fun and very different convention compared to the other 5, and I loved how each was so different from the next. Thank you, California sisters. I look forward to seeing quite a few of you in Arizona!

The 5th stop on our out of state convention journey took us to Charleston, SC. Attending this convention was myself, Dolly Stevens, Jenni Pierson and Gail Sacco.

The theme was "Bridge of Friendship". As with the many other conventions we attended, we were welcomed and quickly formed new friendships. The events were very fun, awesome photo op's and visiting the city of Charleston was an added bonus!

Meredith Bageell was one of the co-chairs and so fun. And. I am excited to report she and April Dutton registered to attend our convention!

Our room block at the San Marcos is sold out again! I increased the room block twice already! If you have not made a hotel reservation and plan to do so, let me know so I can add rooms to our block. Also, FYI, there are only king rooms left. We used up all the double queens.

The 4th stop on our out of state convention journey took us to Virginia Beach! 4 of us attended: Sandy Jones, Dolly Stevens, Barb Van Hamme and Gail Sacco.

The theme “Let’s Get this Party Started” made for a very festive and fun convention! Naturally we had to dress the part for every event! The convention planners completely knocked it out of the ballpark with their photo ops and fun activities. We made more sister friends who plan to attend our convention, so we look forward to seeing them there! Stay tuned.. there are 2 more out of state convention stops that we will share soon!

Oh and by the way, our convention registration deadline is coming up on July 1st! We'd like to see you there!

The 3rd stop on our out of state convention journey was a spontaneous registration to the Colorado state convention in June 2024. The chairs, April, Jan and Sarah were a dynamic trio who did an excellent job in the planning and ex*****on of this convention. The sisters of CO were welcoming and very fun! The theme was "Celebrations". Such fun! I do hope to see some of my new sister friends in AZ at our convention in October!
