Brother Phil Enabnit attended the annual Convention of High Twelve International in Evansville, Indiana last week. He will be giving a report about it soon. Two items from that meeting: 1. There is a dues increase for International from $8.50 per-capita to $10.00 per-capita; up $1.50. 2. There will be NO mid-year Convention this year. These have taken place in November in the past. There is talk of moving International’s office to Florida.
