4th District Fall Conference
The fall conference was held October 26th at Gentian Elementary in Columbus. We had a full schedule with great speakers, an attendance of 72 tribe mates, 4 Georgia PTA board members, and representation from 3 counties!

The Yellow Tribe ("The Voices") won the tribe challenge, earning shell necklaces and extra awards points for the tribe. With everyone's contribution, 197 cans of food were collected for our community.

Achievement awards were given to Early Early Birds, Early Birds, Platinum, and 10% Membership Increase over last year. The Spring Conference will be March 24th, 6:30 p.m. at St. Marys Elementary.

Our host PTA was wonderful! Gentian volunteers helped with everything from set-up to clean-up. We could not have done it without them...great job everyone!
