LWVF's Council of Leaders is fast approaching!

 

As you may have heard by now, we have a number of exciting events planned for the weekend of May 11-12, 2012 including a special performance by the Florida Orchestra, featuring Enrique Perez Mesa of the Cuban National Orchestra. The state office has secured a group rate for the performance and we are currently working on an opportunity for our members to meet Mr. Perez Mesa in person. So if you haven't yet registered for Council, make sure to do as soon as possible!

In addition to social networking opportunities, Council will offer attendees the chance to learn about the League's 2012 voter service initiatives as well as get a firsthand look at our educational presentation on the 11 amendments that will be on the general election ballot in November. All that, plus an orchestra performance and flamenco dancing! Trust us, you do not want to miss this event!
