SPJST Home Office to update phone system
CONGRATULATIONS TO 2018-2019 SPJST STATE ROYALTY! They are, center, Duke Tyson Bilbrey of Lodge 47, Seaton; King Nash Campbell of Lodge 24, Cyclone; Queen Grace Lewis and Duchess Dakota Kienow, both of Lodge 9, Snook. They are pictured with 2017-2018 State King Austen Holland and Duke Maison Holland, far left, both of Lodge 25, Ennis, and 2017-2018 State Queen April Dvorak and Duchess Madison Holland, both of Lodge 25, Ennis. The new royalty court was crowned on Saturday, August 4 at SPJST State Youth Achievement Day held at the Frank W. Mayborn Convention Center in Temple. All State YAD results will appear in next week’s Vestnik.
The phone system at the SPJST Home Office will be updated beginning Monday, August 20. Callers will be greeted with an automated message. If you know the Home Office staff member’s extension that you are calling, you may dial it at any time during the greeting. If you do not know the extension but you do know the person’s name you are calling, you will press “1” for the directory. You will then enter the first three letters of the person’s name, and the call will ring at the person’s desk. You may press “0” at any time to speak to the receptionist, who will remain a real, live person. We look forward to serving you and hearing from you. As always, questions can also be emailed to info@spjst.org. —SPJST—
