Members of the Truman CK chapter attended the National Conference in Chicago-October 5-8. The theme of this year’s conference was “Creating Connections” and Morgan Schmitz, Lara Redmond, Shelby Pieper and Advisor Liz Jorn attended workshops on fundraising, JDRF, recruitment, reports and social media. Attendees also volunteered at the Ron Santo Walk to Cure Diabetes which had over 7000 walkers and raised over $1.1 million. Also in attendance were Truman alumni, which included Devin Lammy (National Co-Director), Rachel Marx, Kirsten Vollmer, Baillie Cloyd and Gretchen Smiles. On the last day of the conference elections were held for new national officers and there was a closing banquet celebrating the accomplishments of all the Ck chapters. Shelby was voted in as the new National President and Morgan as Vice President. Congrats Shelby and Morgan!
