Natl NOW conference report

Didn’t have near the time I wanted to post as often as I wanted. Very busy, but a great busy. All the speakers were on the mark, spoke truth to power and were very inspiring. Attended all but one workshop. Had to skip the 5th block, to oversee our toilet getting fixed. I went to the modernizing NOW workshop-brain storming shops. The focis is to get lotos and lots of member input and restructure NOW. The 2014 conference will be the end point, where needed by laws changes will occur, internal policies will be modified and the sub unit structure will be addressed.

I also went to a cracker jack social media-on line fund raising session.

In between I got to hang out with many old friends and made several new younger friends. This was a great conference. Next year is Chicago. Yeah, I can drive!!!

I am also no longer on the Natl board. MY term ended at the adjournment of the 2012 conference. The focus is  now on local QC NOW and some on Iowa NOW

Busy June

June is and has been a busy month. The NOW national conference is in about 10 days. Very excited to be able to attend. This is my final conference as a National board member.

Recently QC NOW was at the 2 day Quad City Pride fest, held June 2 and 3. yesterday, June 16th, I went to the Iowa city Pride fest.  At both events I had great help from local members. Carol and David (QC) and Jorie from Iowa City.

both fests were a great time. At the Iowa City event, our neighbors were the Iowa City Drag Kings.  I am now following them on their tumblr site. Please check out QC and Iowa NOW on Facebook, and go to iowanow.org for more info. An to join NOW on line.
