They have worked hard for the Eagles for many years and certainly deserve this honor. For those of you who were able to attend the Grand Convention in Reno, I hope you came away with more knowledge, new friendships, and the drive to work harder on increasing our membership and supporting our charities. Without your help in these two areas, we will not be able to fulfill our obligations as " People Helping People". Congratulations to Althea P. Lane on her new office as Grand Madam Secretary. We wish her much success in her new position. Lone Austin Special points of interest: State Trustees Night Grand Convention Photos Mountain View Picnic Grand Convention Photos (online version only) I will not be attending our meetings in Mountain View on August 11th, as I will be out of town celebrating my Mother's 80th birthday and a once in a lifetime reunion with all my brothers and their children. Thank you in advance to Frank and Robert for standing in as proxies for myself and Carol. We do appreciate it very much. Congratulations to all the new officers of Sires and Arabellas.
