Greetings LWVWV Members, 

I am excited to invite you to our upcoming virtual state convention on Saturday, May 13.

The Zoom link and agenda are below. You will find documents related to the convention here. We'll continue to add items to this folder. 

Our keynote speaker is Dr. Elisabeth Griffith, author of Formidable: American Women and the Fight for Equality 1920-2020. See flier for more on Dr. Griffith. Guests who are not members of the League are invited to join us for this portion of the convention. (LWV members can attend entire convention, just can’t vote unless they are a delegate. If you are interested in serving as a delegate, please inquire with your local League.) We kindly ask that everyone register here so that we can check the list of attendees against our official membership roster.

The agenda has been updated since the previous notice. There are no proposed by-law changes at this time.  

Looking foward to seeing you on May 13! 

Best,

Julie
