Annual Arkansas Questers Spring Convention
A "Virtual" Experience
April 9-23 2021
Theme: Women’s Suffrage
Hello, Arkansas Quester Members!
Katy Van Note here from Trail of Tears with some information regarding our upcoming Virtual Spring Convention,
hosted by the Northwest Arkansas Questers Chapters, Butterfield Trails, Happy Rackensackers, and Trail of Tears.
To explain our Convention to you a little bit, we are gathering Programs from Chapters in Power Point (converted to PDF for ease in reading), Video and Written Papers with some pictures as well as interesting websites and articles. Our Webmasters, Roger and Thelma Poole are “storing” these in their files to post on the webpage a day before the Convention is to begin.
THIS year the Convention will last for TWO WEEKS, from April 9- April 23.
This will give participants time to peruse at their leisure all the information stored on that webpage: https://www.arkansasquesters.com/ar-convention-access.html.
The Registration Fee will be the same as always, $35.00. There are no other fees. This will give:
Almost all the Registration Fee of $35.00 will go directly into the State P&R fund to save up for future Grants. So that every penny that we pay for the Convention Fee will go back into the hands of the Quester Chapters.
MEETINGS Friday, April 16
Thanks for all you are doing out there!
We will weather this Pandemic and come back stronger than ever.
If you have any written programs that you would like to share,
Send them to
Thanks for reading this and please share this letter and convention forms with members who may not have access to them.
We want a RECORD turnout for this Spring Convention.
Sincerely Representing our 3 Chapters, Katy Van Note, President Trail of Tears #904, Bella Vista, 515-490-6238
