[I definitely have gotten behind -- this was a draft back in May, regarding our convention...]
Woodmen of the World Life Insurance Society, Florida Jurisdiction...Carl and I were two of 350 people who attended our biennial convention in beautiful St. Augustine May 13-15. We have been Woodmen members for nearly 20 years and have enjoyed the benefits of a fantastic company offering life insurance, financial planning products, and so much more...see http://www.woodmen.org/. But the fraternal portion of this 120 year old company is what we enjoy being part of...great folks, the many community projects and flags...we love presenting flags to non-profit organizations...Lake Ella...that's our flag on the island; Senior Center...that's our flag; Tom Brown Park ball fields...those are from us; Tallahassee Gymnastics Center...that's from us too; Crawfordville, Ft. Braden, Midway...those are our flags; Leon County Elementary Schools...all those classroom flags came from us...we're the #1 provider of American flags other than the U.S. Government! And all across the country, to honor the sacrifice of the heroes in our communities and in our military, we have presented a 30' flag pole and flag to various organizations for "In Honor and Remembrance Day" each 9-11. We're a patriotic company...we love our nation, we love our flag, we love our communities and we love helping others.
Now after that plug, here's just a couple of pictures to share of our weekend...and to share one other bit of news, at the end of the 2011 convention, Carl was re-elected as the Chairman of the Fraternal Service Committee and I was elected Vice President for 2011-2013.
