2016 SOBA AMERICA MINI CONVENTION:<br />

CHARLOTTE WAS A BLAST!<br />

The 2016 Mini Convention took place in Charlotte, NC, from November 11th to 13th.<br />

This annual rendez vous of <strong>Soba</strong> <strong>America</strong>’s National Executive Committee had in attendance<br />

many delegates from many <strong>Soba</strong> <strong>America</strong> Chapters.<br />

The weekend kicked off with a highly attended welcome dinner event at the residence<br />

of the President of the Carolinas Chapter, Dr. Bertrand Fote. The Carolinas Chapter put<br />

up an epic show, which by all accounts “dazzled all <strong>Soba</strong>ns and guests in attendance”.<br />

SOBANS, their families and guests were treated to a four-course meal by the legendary<br />

Chef Teba and his team flown into town from MD just to cater the event. The event was<br />

an all-night twist of dancing which concluded in the wee hours of the morning. Compared<br />

to many conventions and mini conventions in the past, this Friday event felt like<br />

a gala of its own standard.<br />
