2020 District Lodge 141 Local Committee Chairperson’s Conference – Event Cancelled
I hope you are all keeping well under these very difficult circumstances. As you are aware District 141 Committee Conference was scheduled to be held in early May here in Chicago. In light of the unprecedented events surrounding our industry, our members and our communities due to the COVID-19 pandemic we requested and were granted dispensation from our General Vice President to cancel this year’s conference.
We always look forward to having all our committee people and chairpersons together every year but know you will understand the difficult decision that was made.
All registrations and donations that were made via Eventbrite will be refunded back to the individuals and the Hilton Rosemont advised me that as soon as they release the space then all room reservations will be canceled and all monies paid in the form of deposits etc will be refunded. (This may have already happened)
Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. On behalf of Mike and the entire Executive Board, thank you and please be safe.
