Our state convention occurred earlier in October in Salina. Several people attending the October District 1 meeting were honored at the convention. Margaret McGillivary was welcomed to the 80+ group. Reaona Hemmingway received a Service Award for dedicated service at state, regional and local levels. (Carol Yoho read the nomination essay to attendees and District 1 President Duane Johnson presented the award to Reaona.) Duane Johnson placed in the state writing competition with a performance-poetry award (a new poetry category in '18). He performed his winning entry for those attending our meeting. Congratulations Margaret, Reaona, and Duane!
