The AAUW State Convention is scheduled for April 27-28 in Faribault.  With the convention being so close, it wouldn’t be necessary for members to reserve a hotel room.  It would also be possible to arrange to carpool for those who attend.Austin can send up to 5 delegates to the convention.  There is no limit on the number of members who can attend state convention, but only 5 are official delegates of our branch.  If you would like to serve as a delegate, please let Jill or I know by April 10.  We will share more information about state convention as it becomes available.  A booklet is produced for each state convention that allows branches to highlight what they have been doing and note favorite books their groups have read.  If you would like to submit anything for the Branch Hi-lights and Favorite Books submission for state convention, please email your submission to me by March 5.  We can submit up to 3 favorite books.  Please be sure to include the book title, author, and a short story summary (2-4 sentences) with your submission.  I will organize all of your contributions together into the format they request and submit it for publication.
