I wanted to thank you for allowing me to serve as your Chapter president, it's been
an incredible year!  And congrats to Aaron Hansen, our new Chapter President.

I know many of you are winding down your school year (well, after making up all the snow days!), so I wanted to send you a list of dates for next school year's workshops.  We have a great list of presenters, so I hope you'll put these on your calendars.

A brochure and e-mail will be sent to you and your school in early August as a reminder.

If you have any questions or need information, please feel free to contact me at anytime.

Take care, and enjoy well-earned summer break,
Sarah
