Dear Sisters:
I am hopeful that you, your family, and loved ones are well and following the recommended
guidelines by those in leadership positions.
Sadly, our nation is in a health crisis. And, unfortunately, many of our members fall into the
major high-risk category.
So reluctantly, it has become necessary to protect our membership by cancelling the 2020
Leadership Development Conference.
I will send more information as I converse with the Executive Committee.
Again, please follow the instructions of Governor Hogan and the Center for Disease Control
(CDC) in order to protect your health and that of your loved ones.
Stay healthy.
Until we meet again.
Your DKG Maryland State President,
Lorraine W. Johnson
