I just wanted to add that the Sweetheart Pins are no longer available. I
have been trying to get one for the last two years. However, there were
some "found" at Pollock (sp?) and they were available at the National
Convention in MinneAPOlis. After not finding them at the National Office
and then calling Pollock on several occasions, I was very happy to locate
one for my wife who is now an Honorary Member of my chapter.
