Wow, were we ever inspired by the speakers, informed by the breakout sessions, and encouraged by the fellowship of our sisters from all over the southeast region. Mu State really did a shining job of hosting the more than eleven states for the event. Bea, Barb, Diane, Jane, Nancy and I had a great time. We were welcomed to The Gaylord and Florida by the top- ranking female Florida Highway Patrol Commander Major Cynthia A. Williams. She compared our jobs as teachers to officers as students are asked to raise one hand but their job requires that two hands be raised. She recognized her former teachers in the audience and related how many teachers had worked with her. Courage was to be claimed after Sandra Ford Walston presented ways to identify and address obstacles to courage in our personal and professional lives. Marylands Womens Heritage Center loaned us the talented Kate Campbell Stevenson to tout the place of women in leadership and history. Her one-woman musical of historical women through the ages was fantastic.
We Women of Courage were called SHEROS as Carolyn Fennell validated our work as teachers and encouragers. Our membership chair, Bonnie, is dealing with family issues and a wedding and is unable to continue her duties as Membership Chair. Please let us know if you can assist with this important role. We are looking forward to our Fall Initiation at COLONY WEST Saturday, September28. We are hosting this event!
A big thank you and a gold star to Paula for submitting all the forms treasurers must complete over the summer. Mark your calendars as Renee and Margie have organized a fantastic set of programs for us this year. See you in September! Pat Houchens, Xi President
