The tri-district Taking Action for Peace initiative has formed the RAG for Peace Great Lakes Chapter.
Apparently there are only a few of these chapters in the US, and we're pleased to become one.
Official induction is at 9:00 am on Saturday, May 24 (early to accommodate the London contingent of RAGFP) on Zoom.
We'll be learning more about what it means to be a Chapter, and are creating a PowerPoint reviewing how we got here. Hoping to share that with clubs in our 3 Districts, 6380, 6400, and 6600.
You have all shown great support for our peace efforts, and it's so appreciated!
