Thank you, Region 15, for your confidence in approving me as incoming President. We have a great leadership team, many of whom will be continuing from Bill's administration. If you are looking for an opportunity to jump on the leadership train, call me.
Another big Thank You to the Mid-Carolina Daylily Society for a fabulous trip through the World of Imagination. The Willie Wonka Chocolate factory created at the church was over the top and your passion and generosity were truly inspiring. If you missed it, plan to join the next big thing "A Daylily Journey to Soda City - Blooms, Bids and BBQ" in Columbia, SC May 31 - June 1, 2024. Alex and I will see you there!
