March 8, 2005

Dear Section and Area Leading Lovers,

Did you know that the Convention begins (July 8, 2005) 4 months from today ???

Did you know that the registration fee for the convention increases $10.00 per couple and $5 per priest/religious/widower one week from today? Effective March 16th, the registration fees will increase as indicated.

Registrations are pouring in - with 290 adults and 70 children registered so far.

Please take advantage of the reduced registration fees in effect through midnight March 15th.

Love,
The Convention Committee

Please go to http://convention.wwme.org/ and choose between the online and the paper registration process. If you choose the latter you may download the paper registration form from the site.

Online registration on the website is in English and there is downloadable paper registration form in Spanish.

Credit cards are accepted in the online and the paper registration process, and checks may be used in the latter.

The Convention is a FAMILY CONVENTION and will be held at Towson University, Towson, Maryland from Friday evening July 8th until Sunday afternoon July 10th. It will be preceded by Priest Day on Friday July 8th. There will be a separate program for children who may be registered online or by paper (starting at the url above.)

The theme is "In God We Trust" and our patrons are The Holy Family. The talks will be superb and culturally diverse.

Check out the website, which will be updated and made more informative regularly between now and the Convention.

PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO YOUR TEAMS AND COMMUNITY.
