CLEVELAND, May 5 — Host Chair Teresa Bryant, Brother Scott Frederick and the members of BLET Division 30 (Atlanta) are reminding everyone that there’s still time to register for the BLET’s final Southeastern Meeting Association (SMA), slated for June 14-19, 2015, at Lake Lanier Islands in Buford, Ga.
Delegates to the Third National Convention in 2014 voted to change the BLET’s regional meeting structure so that there will be only two regional meetings per year beginning in 2016. As a result, the 88th SMA coming up in June will be the final SMA. Sister Bryant, Brother Frederick and the members of the Arrangements Committee are planning an SMA that you will not want to miss.
Guests will stay at the Lanier Islands Legacy Lodge in Buford, Ga. Hotel reservations can be made online through the hotel’s website (www.lanierislands.com) or by calling (770) 945-8787. Whether making reservations online or by telephone, be sure to use Group Code 150614BROT. The deadline for SMA convention registration is May 15, 2015.
Scheduled events will include the opening ceremony, several days of workshops, a banquet dinner, as well as the annual SMA golf outing. Registration and a welcome reception will be held on June 14, the banquet will be the evening of June 18, and hotel check out and travel home will be on June 19.
Additional information, registration forms and other details can be found on the National Division’s website, www.ble-t.org/sma.
