BOTAR – Educational Event

Polsinelli was the location for an educational event for this year’s BOTAR class. Marianne Kilroy and Lauren Luhrs served as the co-chairmen. BOTARs learned everything about BOTAR, from volunteering at The American Royal to establishing lifelong friendships. The speakers included many past presidents and members of the 2019 executive committee. Afterward, BOTARs joined their escorts and the 2018 BOTAR class for a social at The Granfalloon.
