STATE SPONSORS' ORIENTATION

The State Sponsors' Orientation is a biennial program for Junior and Senior State Sponsors. The sponsor activities include learning the duties of a state sponsor, planning and coordinating meetings for a convention, leading an installation ceremony for new officers, and sharing ideas with other sponsors. There are thirteen Junior State Sponsors and eighteen Senior State Sponsors. The state sponsors are elected at their respective state conventions by their peers. When elected the sponsor is committed to a four year term, two years as sponsor-elect and two years as state sponsor. The thirty-one state sponsors are invited to come to Spartanburg for a four day orientation at the beginning of their term in office. The present state sponsors were in Spartanburg this past September.

The next conference will be held September 2007.
