From Karen Cramer
A note from the "quirky things that happen at General Convention" file:
On the floor of the House of Deputies, each deputation has a pole next to their table, indicating the name of their Diocese.
Many Dioceses have taken to personalizing their poles by placing a symbol on top that represents their Dioceses in some way. For example, Soutwest Florida has a stuffed famingo, Main has a giant plastic lobster. The Utah Deputation, after a bit of rather entertaining deliberation, selected a symbol of our own to adorn our pole - an empty box of Squatter's Polygamy Porter (see below).
The journey of how the box made its way to the floor of the House of Deputies is a long and complicated one, but the short story involved an overnight FedEx delivery from St. George orchestrated by the Rev Susan Wiltsey.
Just one of the little things that helps to keep us entertained during some of the long working hours of Convention.
