If you have received your Sept/Oct DKG NEWS, you may have read my column about Planning Ahead. We are really good at that in our organization. For the past two to three years, members of Hawaii State Organization have been working with women in Japan. The criteria for founding a new state organization had been updated and approved by the Administrative Board about the same time. More than 50 Japanese women have shown an interest in joining our Society. Nearly 10 attended the 2012 International Convention in New York City.
To make a long story short: Dr. Beverly Helms, 2012-2014 international president, will conduct ceremonies to establish Japan as the 18th country and the 80th state organization in DKG on October 14 in Kochi, Japan. I will be better with pictures and post some from that event.
