District Conference 2010 Day 2

Friday, April 23, 2010

Today was another exciting day for District Eleven Altrusans!  After First Timers and Delegates received their instructions from Denice Gilb and Judy Sorensen, respectively, everyone gathered for the Opening Session.

We were led in the Presentation of the Flag and the Pledge of Allegiance by the Boy Scouts of America.  They couldn't have been more adorable.  Long Beach Woodrow Wilson High School Girls Ensemble did a wonderful job singing our National Anthem.

Guest speaker, Dr. Ginny Baxter, entertained and enlightened us with her discussion of "President's Wives and Volunteerism".  She restrained herself and limited her discussion to only three of our nation's First Ladies -- Lou Hoover, Jackie Kennedy, and Eleanor Roosevelt.
