RE: Invitation to Florida State Board’s New Community
Dear Chapter leaders and FL HLAA members,
Have you heard the news? HLAA 2022 Convention is coming to Tampa!
We hope you have, because Florida is in the spotlight for many different reasons. Engaging with the public on many formats with our Mission in mind, we want to step in and contribute to an experience that everyone will remember for a long time.
HLAA National chose Tampa, Fl for Convention for 2022. This is HLAA’s first in-person Convention since 2019. We want to be shouting from our rooftops the opportunity to showcase our beautiful state with this Convention. There are so many ways we can experience and contribute to this event together: as an HLAA FL State Association Team Member, Volunteer, or Attendee. With your generosity and assistance we can help HLAA National stage a Convention unmatched to anything it’s done before.
You are cordially invited to our Board Meeting on November 20th at 10 am via the Zoom platform. Click on register below if you wish to attend the meeting. To confirm your contact/Chapter information [phone number & email address] by sending or calling me with this data is most appreciated. An Agenda will be forward to you. We look forward toward adding your time and talents in this exciting adventure. Thank you for your prompt response.
