Cabinet Meeting Via Zoom February 11th, 2023 Conference Report DG Debbie and fellow cabinet members First registration sent out with January bulletin, a couple of items missed so resent to all cabinet members. Zone chairs are requested to send on to their clubs. We have been to the conference center, very nice but only 2 breakout rooms available for panels. So we will be having a combined Secretary, Club Administrator, Service Chair panel and a President, Vice President, Directors panel, one in the morning and the other in the afternoon, that way Lions can attend both if they wish to. We are working on the other two panels. We have a Hospitality Suite which we can also hold the Zone Chair Rap session in. Our International Guest is PID Justin Faber from Deckerville Michigan. If he would like to meet with some Lions Leaders we can also do that in the suite, not at the same time!! Vernon Lions are looking after the registration hand out bags. Kamloops Aberdeen are looking after registration. Lion Ken has already received several registrations. The Prestige Inn has only a few rooms left that we had put aside. Last time I spoke to them there were 8 out of 60 left!!! So if you have not booked you better do it quickly. Fun night Theme is Family Picnic. We are looking for a couple of photos from each club so we can display them on the tables, this is our last year as District D and we want to showcase what our clubs have done and are doing at the conference. The raffle and silent auction is being looked after by the Kamloops Paddlewheelers Lions club, we would appreciate either an item or money for us to purchase an item, for the auction or raffle. If you want to send a monetary donation towards a raffle prize, you can make it out to Lions 19D Spring Conference and send to Kamloops Paddlewheelers Lions Club Box 1304 Kamloops, V2C 4T3There will be a service project at the conference; we are nailing down what it will be. The first official event on Friday will be the cabinet meeting at 1 pm. We are looking forward to seeing you all there. Respectively Submitted PDG Debbie Bostock
