ANNUAL REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT

This officer performed her duties in accordance with P.E.O. Constitution and the South Carolina State Chapter Bylaws. She presided over all scheduled state executive board meetings and conference calls.

In July, this officer attended the annual LEAD (Leadership, Education, and Development) conference at the P.E.O. International Headquarters in Des Moines, IA. Building relationships and learning new ideas for our sisterhood made each day exciting and relative.

This officer also visited Alaska for the formation of the Alaska State Chapter. She met new sisters in that beautiful state and also celebrated this event with sisters from the lower 48. This was truly a once in a life time happening.

Visiting chapters was a wonderful opportunity for this officer to meet new sisters and listen to the needs and projects of our chapters. These visits helped tell the sisters that the board is open to questions and wanted to be available to all our members whenever they needed us. She also answered questions about the new web site and the need for better use of the internet.

This officer participated in the Low Country Founders Day luncheon and meeting in January. The program was enjoyable and, as always, there were new sisters to meet.

This officer sent out a quarterly Daisy Dispatch. This provided real news, updates, and information for the chapters.

And, this officer participated in the organizations of two chapters, Chapter AQ in Bluffton and Chapter AR in Mount Pleasant. It was wonderful to watch our state grow with such amazing women.

This past year has been exciting and rewarding. This sister is very thankful for the support and guidance she has received from so many who give of their time, talent, and support to our sisterhood. And, this officer could not have done this job without the support, love and understanding of her sisters in Chapter AO, Chapter AQ and many PSPs.

Jane Prince, AQ President.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE VICE PRESIDENT

The duties and responsibilities of this office, as stated in the Constitution of the P.E .O. Sisterhood and the South Carolina State Bylaws, have been fulfilled for the year 2016-2017.

This officer attended all meetings and conference calls of the executive board. She attended the organizational meetings of Chapter AQ, Bluffton in October 2016 and AR, Mt. Pleasant in April 2017. This officer was a proud participant taking the part of recording secretary for the ceremony of initiation. This officer attended the Columbia Reciprocity Founders' Day celebration and Founders· Day for the chapters in the Sumter area .

In the interest of frugality and to follow in the path of the excellent SC Webinar presented in early 2016 about navigating the International and South Carolina web sites, this officer created a webinar presentation for the general membership to assist them in navigating through the Red Membership Toolbox on the International web site. The presentation is available on the SC web site and explains every link/presentation/document in the toolbox for use by any member of the Sisterhood. Special thanks to Erin Fall and Debi Foshee for their assistance with recording and posting the web°inar on the state web site.

A highlight of this year was a trip to Cottey College in Nevada, Missouri and the opportunity to visit the Southeastern Suite. A CARE package of quarters and gift cards was sent to the Southeastern Suite of Robertson Hall in April. Many thanks to the SC Cottey Committee, Carolyn Heh, Amanda Underhill and AB Bohannon.

This officer corresponded with Buddy Chapters. This officer continued working with the hostess chapters J, K, V, X and AO on the 2018 Convention. This is a great group of chapters and everyone is stepping up to make it a wonderful convention.

This officer served as an ex-officio member of the Finance Committee during their budget planning meeting. This officer would like to thank Gail Olive, Deana Peterson, Janet Tirone and Liz Stands for their devotion to present a balanced budget. This officer served as board liaison to the South Carolina Educational Fund, Cottey College and Philanthropy Committee. Thank you to the SCEF Committee, Barbara Blasch, Barb Harriman and Jo Prange, as well as the Philanthropy Committee, Linda Murphey, Elise Mccasland and Jane Olson. These sisters were instrumental in keeping the local chapters informed about developments for their specific projects.

This officer made appointments for all standing and special committees for 2017-2018, the board approved them, and a handout is being provided at the end of convention. Preparations are being made to attend the LEAD Conference in Des Moines in July and to lead the South Carolina Delegation at Convention of International Chapter in September of 2017 in Charlotte, NC.

Throughout the year, this officer was honored to serve SC President Jane Prince in many and varied capacities. This officer is blessed and extremely thankful to have the unwavering support of Chapter G.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TREASURER

The duties and responsibilities of this officer were fulfilled as prescribed by the P. E. 0.

Constitution and the South Carolina Bylaws. This officer's duties included collecting all

monies, making deposits, writing checks to individuals and to the projects as requested

with approval of the President. Annual chapter reports were received from the treasurers

and duly processed and submitted to P. E. 0. International.

This officer attended all meetings of the Executive Board in person or via conference call.

With assistance from two Past State Presidents, Nanci !stock and Debi Foshee, to

address issues with the state Excel-based ledger, this officer prepared quarterly reports

that were submitted and reviewed by the Executive Board, Audit Committee, and Finance

Committee. Two new chapters were organized since our last convention-Chapter AQ

and AR-and this office had the pleasure of assisting in the organization meetings for

both chapters. South Carolina is now comprised by 43 active chapters and we increased

to 1556 members with 83 new initiates and 11 reinstated sisters as of February 28, 2017.

Chapter, reciprocity and group donations to the Philanthropies totaled $89,866.94.

This amount excludes gifts sent directly to the International or Cottey College and not

through the state treasurer.

This officer worked with the Finance Committee to prepare the budget for the next fiscal

year. At this officer's recommendation, the Finance Committee made a formal

recommendation that the system of accounting offered by International Chapter, QBE, be

purchased by the South Carolina State Chapter. With the approval of President Jane

Prince, the South Carolina QBE system has been purchased and this officer will assist

the incoming treasurer in transitioning to this new accounting system. The final task for

this officer is overseeing the Credentials Committee at the state convention in Columbia.

Finally, this officer thanks the Executive Board members for their help, support, and

patience. And this officer gives her heartfelt appreciation to her sisters in Chapter H who

have given her much love and encouragement in fulfilling her duties as treasurer.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE SECRETARY

This officer thoroughly enjoyed her first year of service as secretary of the South Carolina State Chapter Executive Board! The duties and responsibilities of this officer were fulfilled as prescribed by the P.E.O. Constitution and the South Carolina State Bylaws. Included in these duties is acting as corresponding secretary of Disbanded Chapter A

This officer attended state board meetings, recorded official minutes and entered them into the Secretary's Book of Minutes. She submitted quarterly reports of activities and reimbursements requests.

Anniversary greetings, thank you notes, cards and emails were sent to individuals and chapters as appropriate. Letters and cards of sympathy were sent to the chapters and families of members entering Chapter Eternal. In addition, this officer corresponded as necessary with Gail Olive, PSP, in preparation for the Time of Remembrance at the 2017 Convention.

Changes in membership were reviewed, and a quarterly report of membership was provided to a11 members of the state board and the membership committee chair. All files and manuals werereviewed and updated as necessary.

This officer had the privilege of participating in the organization of two chapters; Chapter AQ, Bluffton, on October 22, 2016 and Chapter AR, Mount Pleasant on April 8, 2017. Although it's always exciting when a new chapter is organized, this officer's most favorite part was the quality time spent getting to know new sisters!

In January 2017, this officer attended the Founders' Day Celebrations with the Aiken County area chapters and also the Sumter area chapters.

The Annual Report to the Chief Administrative Officer of International was compiled by the information sent by the local corresponding secretaries. A copy of the report can be found in the convention kit.

A list of the Golden Girls from South Carolina was compiled and invitations sent. Golden Girl certificates were ordered from International and corsages were prepared for presentation at convention. All sisters who have achieved 50, 55, 60, 65, and 75 years of membership were lovingly honored.

This officer offers sincere thanks to all the patient and hard-working corresponding secretaries for their cooperation throughout the years. Also, this officer would like thank chapters who sent their monthly newsletters to the Executive Board - this officer enjoyed reading every one of them and may have shared some of your wonderful fund raising ideas with her own chapter!

This officer's final task for 2016 -2017 wm be to compile, print and distribute the Proceedings of the 2017 Annual Convention of the South Carolina State Chapter.

This officer would like to thank the state board and past state presidents for their continued guidance and loving support. This officer extends her sincere thanks to her Absolutely Awesome sisters in Chapter AA, Sumter, for their love and caring support throughout the year in fulfilling the duties of this office.

@ COTTEY COLLEGE

COTTEY REPORT

This Committee Chair has performed her duties in accordance with the P.E.O. constitution and the South Carolina Chapter by-laws. This includes promoting Cottey College to all South Carolina Chapters and prospective Cottey Students.

Aiken and Augusta Ga. chapters collaborate to participate in the CSRA College night at the James Brown Arena in Augusta. The chapters distribute Cottey information, answer questions, and follow up with telephone calls and e-mails to prospective Cottey students.

This Chairman thanks Amanda Underhill, Chapter H, Greenville, and A. B. Bohannon, Chapter I, W�stminsterfor their service on the Cottey Committee during 2016-2017.

A group of P.E.0. Sisters traveled to Cottey College in August 2016, for the Cottey Seminar. They enjoyed meeting with the new Cottey president, Dr. Jann Weitzel, seeing the campus, meeting students and staff and staying in the suites where students live.

Dr. Weitzel is pieased to announce the addition of four more baccalaureate degree programs and one new certificate program. The new programs will begin in the fall of 2017 and include degrees in Criminology, Women's Studies, Organizational Leadership and Secondary Education. A one-year certificate program in Administrative Office Technology will also be offered in the fall. With the new degree and certificate programs ''we will be able to open our doors to more women who have expressed an interest in these fields." said Dr. Weitzel.

Chapters in South Carolina generously gave Cottey College $13,262 in 2016-2017.

Thank you, Chapter G, Columbia, for the Cottey display at Convention.

EDUCATIONAL LOAN FUND ANNUAL REPORT2016

The P.E.O. Educational Loan Fund (ELF), established in 1907, makes loans available to qualified women who desire higher education and are in need of financial assistance.Funds available for loans are always changing, and it is a revolving fund that can be affected by the number of new loans granted, loan repayments, and contributions from chapters and individuals. In 2015, the maximum loan amounts were increased, the time for repayment increased with a "grace period" included, and the interest rate remains the same at 2%.

In 2016, I wrote letters of congratulations and encouragement to SC chapters, and their recipients, who successfully sponsored women for ELF loans: AG-$15,000, F-$15,000, J-$20,000, and X-$12,000. I also wrote letters of congratulations to SC chapters, and their recipients, whose ELF loans were repaid in full: AC, AG, C, and H. These loan repayments totaled $35.000. By repaying loans on time, the women sponsored by these chapters have validated the trust placed in them, and the sponsoring chapters have kept communication open with regular contact and interest. All are to be commended. Also to congratulated are those chapters who contributed to this fund this year.

This particular project is healthy with funds available. Many more women are searching the internet for funds for education, whether loans, grants, or scholarships. When they find P.E.O. and submit an inquiry for a particular fund, the International Office sends out a notification to all SC Chapter presidents with the interested applicant's contact information. I would encourage all chapters to be aware of this, and reach out to the person requesting further information, if she is in your immediate area of the state. In many instances, this contact has produced a very favorable result.

The ELF loan application process is now online. Our international website has many tools for advertising this loan, and for chapter education. I encourage you to visit it for program ideas, as well as the most recent information on the ELF philanthropy.

A special thank you to Chapter Al/Aiken for the ELF display at our convention. Thank you for this opportunity to serve SC P.E.O. in this capacity.

Elise M. McCasland, FSC State ELF Chairperson

P.E.O. STAR SCHOLARSHIP ANNUAL REPORT

2016-2017

The P.E.O. STAR Scholarship was established to provide scholarships for exceptional high school senior women to attend an accredited post-secondary educational institution in the United States or Canada in the next academic year.

This STAR Scholarship is a non-renewable $2500 scholarship for graduating high school senior women. Each Chapter is limited to one application per year. Chapter recommendations and letters are submitted online only between September 1 and November 1.

There are also "Endowed P.E.O. STAR Scholarships" which may be established in honor or memory of an individual or chapter. The funds are held in the P.E.O. Foundation with the principle not expended. Also, a one-time gift of USD $ 2500 may be designated as a "Named P.E.O. STAR Scholarship" in honor or memory of an individual or chapter and must be received by the P.E.O. Executive Office no later than December 1 to be awarded in the ensuing academic year.

We have one "Named STAR Scholarship" this year that has been awarded to a recipient recommended by a South Carolina chapter. The "Eleanor Huey Named STAR Scholarship" has been awarded to Janelle Green, who was recommended by Chapter Z in Mt. Pleasant. The funds for this "Named STAR Scholarship" were generously donated by South Carolina Chapter W in honor of their sister Eleanor Huey, the current Chairman of the STAR Scholarship Board of Trustees.

This year, 520 of the 1868 recommended candidates have been selected to receive STAR Scholarships. Of the 19 recommendations received from South Carolina chapters, 5 were selected as recipients. These young women have the necessary scholarship, talent, achievement and recognition to be awarded the STAR Scholarship:

Abbie Bowman AB/SCAbigail Caldwell AN/SCJanelle Green Z/SCAllison Hendrick Y/SCMorgan Weaver M/SC

The total contributions each year to the STAR project from our chapters internationally determines the number of scholarships that can be awarded. This project is our youngest one and started without an endowment. In 2016, there was a request to all chapters to give an extra amount to STAR and earmark it for endowment. It appears that we are on track to making the endowment happen! Thank you sisters for your continued support!

We also thank Chapter M for the STAR Scholarship display for this 2017 Convent ion.

The fund is made up of three scholarships: the South Carolina Cottey College Scholarship, the Louise B. Eargle Scholarship and the PEO Palmetto Grant. The amount available for scholarships varies each year depending on the accrued interest and capital gains of the fund. The amount available for 2017-2018 is$6700.00.

The committee met at the home of Barbara Blasch on April 6th to review applications and made decisions on the scholarship awards. The decisions were unanimous.

South Carolina chapters submitted five candidates for South Carolina Educational Fund Scholarships in 2017. There were no applicants for the S.C. Cottey College Scholarship. Two applicants qualified for the Louise B. Eargle Scholarship while three qualified for the PEO Palmetto Grant.

STATE HISTORIAN ANNUAL REPORT2016-2017

As your current State Historian, I want to thank our former Historian, Robbie Knox, for her assistance in the transition of my taking over as your State Historian. I also want to thank my very dear friend, Chapter AQ sister, and your State President, Jane Prince, for her invaluable assistance and patience during this past year.

In reading all the Chapter President letters, I am amazed at all the work and fun that has taken place this past year. Even though I want only to mention a few outstanding events, I want all Chapters to know they have made an extremely positive and eventful stride in raising funds for all the projects. Also, through their love and.devotion to each of their sisters, they provided much support and love when it was needed.

A few things that warrant mentioning are as follows:

The BIL tie was sent to Chapter AA in Sumter, in remembrance of their late sister, Virginia Ray, who had started this tradition. This tie was then given to Virginia's children in her memory.

Chapter R in Greenville had two sisters who sang at Carnegie Hall with their church choir. What an amazing time for these sisters.

When I took on the responsibility of your State Historian I acquired six (6) giant plastic tubs of historical items. I immediately realized I needed more space at home. I told my husband we would either have to add another room or take over one of our spare bedrooms, which I opted to do, and turned our spare bedroom into my P.E.O. workroom.

My main and most important accomplishment this year was contacting other State Historians and found out that one of them was able to archive some of their past history at their state college. With the approval of our State President, Jane Prince, I contacted the South Carolina University in Columbia, and got approval from their library to archive some of our state history with them.

These historical items will be available for anyone who may need to review or copy any of this information in the future, through the University library.

Respectfully submitted,

Chris Richards

REPORT OF THE MEMBERSHIP OF SOUTH CAROLINA STATE CHAPTER

2016-2017

The duties of the membership committee are to promote the growth and nurturing ofP.E.O. and to focus on the membership needs within the state of South Carolina. We assist local chapters through encouragement providing resources and any other assistance we can give.

Growth in South Carolina this year has been amazing with a new membership count of 1556 sisters.

The 2016-2017 goals for the state of South Carolina included a chapter Net One gain in membership. Twenty - two chapters reached this goal of Net One with five chapters having a Net Zero gain. Only fifteen chapters had a loss but we are confident that this will change in 2017-2018. The state had a net gain of thirty-eight new members.

Another 2016-2017 state membership goal was to increase membership by organizing at least one new chapter. Chapter AQ, Bluffton was organized in the winter and Chapter AR, Mt. Pleasant was organized in April. There are whispers spreading that another chapter will soon be coming to the Rock Hill/Fort Mill area.

All states were additionally challenged by the International Board to have no disbanded chapters during the 2016-2017 year. The state of South Carolina has accomplished this with the continued growth and strength of Chapter F, Greenville. The committee can report that Chapter F has 10 new members, a complete slate of officers and two delegates at this convention. Congratulations!

During the year the membership committee helped support and recognize each local chapter's efforts to increase membership by e-mails and sending notes of congratulations. Each chapter with a net gain will find a vase of flowers at their table to represent their increase in membership and a display was prepared for The South Carolina State Convention in Columbia. The committee also consulted with Varlie Krupp, Vice President of the South Carolina State Chapter and State Board advisor to the membership committee on producing a membership webinar to enhance membership growth within the state.

Membership Programs promoted throughout the year included: Introduce Your Family To P.E.O.; Let's Go Find Others; and Wear Your Pin Day.

Thank you for the opportunity to serve as your membership chairman during the 2016- 2017 year along with my committee: Joann McElravy and Carolyn Thiel.

REPORT OF THE NOMINATING COMMITTEE

The nominating process for the South Carolina State Executive Board began in December of 2016. All chapters were contacted with an explanation of board requirements and to request nominations. Past state presidents and executive board members were also encouraged to submit names for consideration.

In January, current treasurer Liz Shands notified the committee of her decision to leave the board after the 2011 convention due to a career promotion that would require more of her time. The other officers were then contacted and it was determined that the current secretary would move up to organizer for the following year and the committee would nominate both a secretary and a treasurer. All other current board members wished to have their names placed in nomination for a succeeding office for the 2017-2018 year.

The Nominating Committee of Debi Foshee, AP, PSP; Marilyn Anderson, AF; and Betsey Warren, AP, then reviewed the list of possible candidates from last year's committee as well as potential nominees presented by chapters around the state. Through numerous phone meetings with each other and interviews with potential candidates, the committee selected two extremely well-qualified candidates: one for secretary and one for treasurer.

The P.E.O.s in South Carolina should be proud of the 2016-2017 South Carolina State Chapter Executive Board for their service and commitment to the Sisterhood.

The Nominating Committee is pleased to present the following slate of officers for the 2017-2018 South Carolina State Chapter Executive Board:

President: Vice President: Organizer: Treasurer: Secretary:

Valerie Krupp, Chapter G, Columbia Stephanie Price, Chapter B, Aiken Jeanne Joslin, Chapter AA, Sumter Cynthia Ashworth, Chapter AJ, Greenwood Barbara Harriman, Chapter J, Summerville

Thank you to our Sisters who are willing to serve on the executive board on our behalf.

REPORT OF THE TECHNOLOGY TEAM

The Technology Team had a very productive year. We continued to expand and maintain the new state website, all the while learning more and more. We encouraged chapters to submit information and photos of their events and were able to post that for all to enjoy. We even videotaped one Founders’ Day program and posted that, too. We truly hope this provides inspiration and encouragement to many local chapters.

The team also assisted the state board in producing the spring webinar that is now posted on the website. This training webinar was hosted by Vice President Valerie Krupp who did a great job explaining tools for membership! Just click on “Workshops & Webinars” in the Quick Links menu to find it and watch. It’s posted along with last year’s training webinar that shows you all around the state website. These are wonderful tools for everyone to use - at any time, night or day - to learn how to find resources to help your chapter. We hope you’ll use them and we hope you’ll let us know other information that would be useful to you. The team learns a lot doing more and more of these projects, and as we get more proficient it’s easier and quicker to produce and post for you. So we encourage everyone to be imaginative and think of content for the website that will benefit chapters in all sorts of ways. It’s no longer difficult to share your successes with all your sisters!

As a reminder, the website address is:

www.southcarolinapeo.org

We hope we have helped the local chapters access valuable information in an easy and understandable way. Next year our team will continue to establish processes to maintain the website and to provide easy-to-do webinars and statewide communications, all in an effort to increasingly serve our chapters.
