​IODE National Annual Hybrid Meeting

at the Rodd Charlottetown

29 – 30 – 31 May 2024

Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island

Together Again, what a fitting theme - not since 2019 in Saint John, New Brunswick had we been able to attend the National Annual Meeting in person.  The National Officers in partnership with members from IODE Lady Holland and IODE Lady’s Slipper Chapters in Charlottetown planned an exciting three-day agenda to conduct IODE business, participate in workshops, witness award ceremonies and reconnect with friends.
