Congratulations to Samantha Bloemer for her winning entry "Sealed in History", which was chosen as the official theme for the Louisiana Notary Association's 2019 Annual Meeting and Convention.

The theme of the 2019 convention will focus on the history of the office of notary public and the important role notaries have played - how notaries are "Sealed in History." The convention theme will use influences from Louisiana's civil law history as well as history of the notarial profession worldwide.

Mark your calendars to join us October 18-20, 2019 at the Baton Rouge Marriott for a fun filled weekend of networking and many educational opportunities to brush up on your notarial skills!

The Louisiana Notary Association held its second swearing-in ceremony for the year on May 29. New notaries who passed the notarial exam held on April 6 were invited to be officially sworn in by the Secretary of State in an event held at the Main Branch of the East Baton Rouge Parish Library. The event featured guest speakers Scott Kirkpatrick, LNA Lobbyist; Alan Jennings, LNA Legislative Liaison and Kyle Ardoin, Secretary of State. The ceremony closed with 21 new notaries receiving their oaths of office followed by a reception.

The LNA would like to congratulate all new notaries and thank all members, management staff and guests for making this event a success!
