Welcome Back to the City of Cleveland

Cleveland is a city where entrepreneurial grit actually has a nice ring to it. Where world-changing breakthroughs meet genuine, hardworking people connected by the traditions we share, the opportunities we embrace, and the progress we seek. In other words, there’s no better place to live and work.

The Ohio State Council Officers and the Convention Committee welcome you and your families to return with us to this historic city for the 126th Annual Ohio State Convention!  Information is coming together.  FIRST CALL LETTERS will be sent out to the Grand Knights in February 2025.  But you can start planning today!

The Convention Team is putting together some excursions for Friday and Saturday, Annual Krispinsky Golf Tournament, Insurance Agent Euchre Tournament, our Famous Friday Night Welcome Party, and more for you and your family to enjoy.

So, stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks!
