Carolyn:
Of the 50 members of the Lone Star Chapter, 25 attended plus a couple of guest.
 
I am very proud of our membership and their willingness to take time out of their busy schedules to attend a one day conference. We chose to meet in Waco as a "central point" because of the size of our state. And we had half our membership attend. I think this says something about the members of the Lone Star Chapter as well as APG.

Great ideas, Dee Dee. One thing you didn't mention is the key role
the APG CHAPTER organizations should be playing. After all, they're
the ones on the spot. Lone Star Chapter has been quite productive and
has grown, both through word of mouth and through recruitment. Our
short conference in Waco was quite well attended--weren't there about
40 people there? Regards, Carolyn
