Be sure to plan on attending the next AAUW Wisconsin State Convention, to be held Friday April 26 and Saturday April 27, 2019 at the lovely Lake Lawn Resort in Delavan, in the Lake Delavan and Geneva Lake Area. We have secured room rates of only $103 (including the resort fee) plus tax so extend your visit into a mini-vacation and enjoy the lovely area. Larger rooms and suites are also available at reduced rates. Make plans with your fellow members and/or your significant other to enjoy spring in southeastern Wisconsin! Lake Lawn Resort has a spa, golf course and marina too. Although April is a little early for outdoor swimming in Wisconsin, Lake Lawn has a lovely indoor pool as well. See http://LakeLawnResort.com for more information.
We are keeping the prices at last year’s levels – $75 registration ($85 late), plus $30 for the Friday dinner and $45 for breakfast, lunch and breaks on Saturday. Student registration is $25. Registration opens at 2 pm on Friday, and sessions begin at 3 pm. (State board members will begin at 9:30 am.) The program will end around 5 pm on Saturday.
Our speakers are still being confirmed; however, we do know that we will have speakers on Progress on Title IX, Nontraditional Career Education for Women, Preventing Human Trafficking, Best Branch Practices, What You Don’t Know about AAUW, and a presentation on the Remarkable Women of Lake Geneva. Other topics are under consideration as well. Stay tuned for more details that will be forthcoming as the program is finalized.
The Geneva Lakes, Kenosha and Racine AAUW branches make up District 3 of the Wisconsin AAUW. District 3 is proud to be the host of the 2019 State Convention and hope that you will be joining us. Contact Gretchen McCarthy, Geneva Lakes Branch, or Denise Anastasio, Racine Branch with any questions. We can be reached at denise.anastasio@gmail.com. Looking forward to seeing you in April!
