Membership/Rookie
Indeed, we’ve had teamwork, from a group of women who
are very busy in their own private lives. We have new
mothers, traveling business women, women working long
hours and then going home to families and their needs.
You’ve all managed to touch others, by attending our
meetings, meeting new people and making them feel
welcome, donating your time to projects, fund raising
efforts, CE and all that goes into being an active member.
We also had the wonderful Hospitality Room opportunity,
led by the team of Barb Kindel and Cathy Wolford. CIP made
the room come to life with fun, food, friendship (and a lot of
hard work and time donated by each and every one of you).
We’ve had several challenges this year within our group that
people have stepped in and taken on additional
responsibility that was not originally anticipated. We are a
very strong organization and I’ve been so proud to be
president of a wonderful, thoughtful, professional group of
women.
Committee Chairs:
Thank you for giving me one of the best times of my life.
