       Grand Chief’s Message

       Another year has begun and I am honored to serve as your Grand Chief. My motto and theme is Sisters Together Building Bridges. My thoughts are if we all working together and building a bridge to the community our name and what we are about, we can accomplish our number one goal and that is BUILDING MEMBERSHIP. My charity is Diabetes. I choose Diabetes because my Temple #3 holds this charity close to Our hearts. My colors are red and white. I am hoping to make this year a great one as the Grand Chiefs have done before me.
