The county with the greatest increase in number of members will receive Ms. Way to Go and $300. This year is the second year of the “3 for 3” campaign. The 42 counties with an increase of 3 members or more last year remain eligible in the “3 for 3” contest IF they have an increase of at least 3members again this year. The counties who meet this second year milestone will be recognized at the 2018 KEHA State Meeting.
