Auntie ABATE / "Cuz" Report - February 2026

Auntie ABATE "Cuz"

Dear Cuz,

I’m coming to Officers Training. What do I need to bring?

New at this state meeting stuff

Dear Stuff,

The best thing to bring is an open mind and a big notebook so you can notate all of the information that will be thrown at you. You will be tasked to learn about ABATE of Wisconsin’s chain of command, financial reports, budgeting, how to market your event, how to bring in new memberships and how to keep them once they join. There will be information about Lobby Day, Treasury breakouts, Share The Road meetings, Regional Rep meetings, motivational speakers, and more.

You’ll get to meet the State Officers that keep ABATE of Wisconsin the well-oiled machine that it is. The MRF will also be represented with both Rocky the MRF’s WA lobbyist, and our own Hardtail attending. After all that there’ll be time to cajole and rub elbows with other regional and state officers over a few adult beverages.

Whew! Is that all?

Your ever loving “Cuz,”
