Regent Deanna Konkol called the meeting to order with prayer and flag pledge. In the absence of secretary and treasurer Deanna offered a synopsis of the secretary and treasurer’s reports. The collection box was passed for donations to Support Our Seminarians or Support Our Sisters. There were no other committee reports.
The gavel was passed from Deanna to the new Regent Jill McCord. Thanks to Deanna for her years of service to CDA. The court is still in need of a Vice-regent and Financial secretary.
