Heard Round The Zone January 2024

Looking back on 2023 I truly feel blessed to be able to visit 10 of the 16 regions in Zone 3! Both Angel and I have had time to visit with so many of you and all have truly welcomed us into your “Home Region”. It is amazing how active all regions have been in 2023. Based on what I have been told 2024 is going to be more active! For those that we/I did not get to visit last year, you are on the top of my list for 2024! Not sure if that is a blessing or a curse! LOL

Angel and I wish you the best of the New Year!

Please note that Parade 2024, is going to be hosted in the Zone 3 “Backyard”! The host city is in Birmingham and the local Alabama Region has been working closely with national Parade staff on making this one of the best Parades ever! Last year the host zone had over 800 members attend Parade. I am hoping that Zone 3 shows the left coast folks how the south turns out for a nation event! During my last national phone call, I was told that registration will be opening soon. This event sells out quickly, so make sure that you monitor upcoming emails from the national Parade staff regarding registration. Also, the Region Presidents will be getting more updated information within the next two weeks. I am sure that they will also be sending out email’s outlining the process. So, more to come!

Zone 3 had a very strong membership growth for 2023!

By the Numbers!
