Dear Sister Dames,

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I invite you to join us for our 2021 Autumn General Membership Meeting.

Considering everything we've had to deal with both personally and as a chapter, the board and committees accomplishments during the 2020-21 fiscal year are very impressive and we are proud to share these successes with you.  So, please mark your calendars for what will be an exciting and informative meeting. 

Please click here to register for the meeting on Zoom.  As soon as you register, you will receive an email from Zoom with the meeting details and link. 

During the meeting, we will report on the state of the chapter, the status of the chapter  bylaws and DEI review process, and highlights from the most recent national conference.  Committee chairs will share updates on what they are working on now and also highlight the year ahead. 
I look forward to seeing you on Zoom. Should you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me at president@lesdamesdc.org 

Stacey Adams
