Notes from the Department Secretary

 by  Judy Pusti, 2010-2011 Secretary/Treasurer

A few comments and suggestions to help members that will be attending the National Convention in Milwaukee. In the front of each meeting room, 53 chairs will be reserved - one for the official representative of each Department. Cards bearing the department names will be affixed to the chairs in alphabetical order. Find Alaskas chair and enjoy the meeting. All others who are present have no voice or vote. A National Chairman will be leading each committee meeting which will have signs out in front of each door saying what will be held in the room. 

Example: Group A: Americanism, Girls State and Leadership held in the Regency C - Hyatt Regency Milwaukee.

I will have the list of the Alaska members names for the committee when you come to me for your convention materials (badge etc). Just ask the front desk for my room number and give me a call.

DRESS CODE FOR NATIONAL CONVENTION: The National president has requested that attire for all business meetings for 2010 National convention be business/church attire. This includes dress suits (skirt or pants) or dresses. Please--no jeans, shorts, or tank tops. For those individuals appearing on stage (either during the opening session or while giving a report), the National President requests that either dresses or suits with skirts be worn on stage.
