Greetings Beta Sisters,

The DKG International Convention in Indianapolis was an eye-opening experience for me. Imagine 1400 women from 17 countries gathered in one room to celebrate, learn, and conduct business. North Dakota answered roll call with a “Ya sure!”along with creative replies and sounds from the other organizations. The membership realized with crystal clarity the need to recruit younger members as the speaker took a count of the various generations present at the meeting. Traditionalists and Baby Boomers tallied up 1380 members while Generation X had 15 members present and Generation Y was represented by 5 members. Fortunately, we have some ideas to spark membership this biennium.
Our theme for the biennium will be to Learn, Lead, and Serve.We are all pros at learning and Verna highlighted our leadership skills the past two years. So, now it is time to Serve. Let’s start brainstorming ways to reach younger teachers, invite past remembers to reinstate their membership, and make a difference in our community. What can you do to enhance and maintain Beta Chapter? I look forward to hearing you ideas!
                                                                                                          Deb Boyer, President
