What an Amazing Year!

‘Tis the season to be around loved ones, to relax, relate, and release, and to prepare those ambitious goals for 2020. And while we have a few things to button up before we head back to work (read: take down those Christmas trees!), I would be remiss if I didn’t stop to reflect on the tremendous year our chapter has had – to which we owe you, yes all of you, tremendous thanks. Here’s why:
