Our philanthropy session is one of the favorites of convention.

CELEBRATION OF CHAMPIONS |
Plan to dress up for this Saturday evening event as we come together for a Celebration of Champions! Prior to this evening, we will help you get your “home banquet menu” prepared so we can all celebrate together from the comfort and safety of our homes! Included in this program we’ll present International Honor Keys and North American Awards (competitive club and district). We’ll share a special thank-you to President Perkal, recognize
our Governors and Governors-Elect, and the installation of President-Elect Frank Kelley. President-Elect Kelley will then take a few moments to address membership as we make plans for the coming year.
