Join us for a VIRTUAL Fall Reciprocity.
Reciprocity entertainment will be available on October 16 and presented in segments on our website Reciprocity page.
We are excited to introduce our Program Speaker,
Lizzie Dube, from Milawi. A Cottey grad, IPS recipient and P.E.O. sister, Lizzie will share her story. Visit our Reciprocity page for more info.
Segmenting our Reciprocity entertainment will allow content to be easily accessed by sisters when and where convenient and provide chapters with programs for watch parties or meetings. Details will be sent to Chapter Reciprocity Chairs and Chapter Presidents later this month.
Happy Fall!
It was great to see our New Jersey colors represented in the parade of states, provinces and districts at the historic virtual Convention of International Chapter P.E.O. last month!
The week’s events were very comprehensive in scope with special programs for our delegates and everyone in attendance.
Reviews of the Convention, videos and voting results are posted on the International website, www.peointernational.org, and also covered in the upcoming Nov./Dec. issue of the P.E.O. Record.
New Jersey welcomes this new biennium in P.E.O., as we salute our newly elected International President Patricia Brolin-Ribi and her Board leading on the Path Forward to “Raise the Bar to the Stars”!
