PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
ROAR! We are
coming in like a lion after a busy February. I hope you were able to attend
some or all the great events we held in the last few weeks. I’m so glad we
brought back the virtual wine tasting.
Looking ahead
I am excited for the Madness of March. This year I am challenging each and
every one of you to help us increase our annual donation to the Boys and Girls
Club at our March Madness Event. As you learned from our panel discussion, this
organization is truly a saving grace for youth in the community and our support
helps further their mission.
In the spirit
of collaboration, we are looking forward to meeting with our sister Carolina’s
Chapters to share best practices and come together to celebrate key members of
our region at the Summit & Gala. I hope that you will join us. Please note that registration closes on March
7th!
Spring is on
the way! Grab your sunglasses, a cool drink, probably some allergy support and
get outside to enjoy it.
