News from the Spring National Council Meeting

Members of AGO National Council met in St. Louis this past week. Here's my top ten list:

10. Buds and blossoms in St. Louis – spring is certainly in the air!
9.  The view from the 11-floor reception site following the Charles Callahan recital. Yes, I could see the Arch!
8. The TAO should be going online soon. Look for it.
7. Have you considered joining the Clarence Dickinson society? What is it? A group of people who have decided to leave an estate gift of any size to the guild.
6. There is still time to register for Boston; be sure to book your hotel if you haven’t done so.
5. The Charles Callahan AGO Endowment Recital. He even played his “Aria”! (Bet you all know it).
4. Welcoming a new chapter to our region: Fayetteville-Sand Hills Area (NC)!
3. A chance to share membership concerns from Region IV/Southeast with the Council.
2. Online renewal of dues. Invoice should be coming to an inbox near you J
1. Getting excited about the Region IV/Southeast meeting at Boston. Will there be raffle prizes? Yes, there will. See you there!

Charles Callahan, the AGO Distinguished Artist, performed a recital at the Cathedral Basilica of Saint Louis. What a wondrous space!
