AEC 2009 in Franklin, TN

Every year, I go to the National Association of Junior Auxiliaries' Annual Education Conference. The NAJA's conference was in Franklin, Tennessee this year! I had a blast, but I always do! Besides spending time with my friends, I also get to hear some fabulous speakers who either make me laugh, bring me to tears, or help me become a better person. We had several great speakers this year: Anita Renfroe (the woman who sang "Everything a Mom Does in a Day" to the William Tell Overture), Dr. Jo, and LaDonna Gaitlin (sister of the Gaitlin Brothers). It is my one time a year that I do something for me and have a girls' weekend!

Next year, we will head to Mobile, Alabama. I am looking forward to it already!


There are two Chapter Support Coordinators per Region. Suzanna and I are the CSC's for Region I.


Each Region has a Director. Johnna is our Director as well as my very good friend!
