All BSL delegates meet once a year in the BSL coordination conferences<\/strong>. This meeting, which usually takes place in September, rotates around the various countries. One of the delegates in turn is elected to be the President of the Baltic Sea Lions. Currently the BSL president is PDG Sanna Siissalo\u00a0<\/strong> from Helsinki, Finland.<\/p>\n

Coordination conferences are lively meetings of old friends. Besides the business – updating each other of ongoing Lions projects and activities and planning for new ones – the delegates always also try to take the opportunity to do some sightseeing and getting to know the local culture.<\/p>\n

The next meeting will be in Lithuania, September 22-24.2023.<\/strong><\/p>\n
