A road trip with friends to the Wyoming State Conference, became anything but a leisurely, peaceful drive to Colorado’s northern neighbor when a spring snowstorm dumped wet slushy snow on the area. We left early, drove carefully and made it to Casper, Wyoming in plenty of time for the evening “Meet and Greet” event planned by Wyoming Daughters, Donna Weaver, State Regent. I have attended many of Wyoming’s conferences through the years beginning as a state regent, so I consider it my second home state and always enjoy being with my many friends.
- President General Ann Dillon
From across our vast state Daughters planned their trip to the 102nd Wyoming State Conference May 18 – 21 in Casper, only to have an unexpected snowstorm close sections of interstates and local highways. With strong determination members arrived, along with visiting state regents and a page, driven from Denver through the blizzard by Lindsey Taylor, South Dakota vice regent and conference page.
Thursday evening’s reception welcomed President General Ann Turner Dillon; visiting State Regents: Terri Mott of Arizona, Beverly Moncrieff of California, Janet McFarland of the District of Columbia, and Cindi Carter of Iowa, Vice Presidents Generals Gale Crafton and Mary Agnes McAleenan; and National Chairman, President General’s Project, Bethe Clark-Urban. The spirit and smiles of conference were captured as Daughters greeted old friends and welcomed many first time attendees.
