MESSAGE
FROM THE CHAIR
|
Greetings! August is a good time for fresh perspective and renewal. |

|
I just returned from a couple of days of camping and communing with nature. Hiking in the forest, wading across rivers and streams, looking out from rock cliffs to lush green valleys, I was in awe of its raw beauty and power. We are in the midst of summer and I hope you have had or are planning a vacation as we all need time away from the cares of our day-to-day routine to gain a fresh perspective and sense of renewal.
Next Meeting
Be sure to attend our Section Meeting on August 13th
, network with your fellow members, enjoy a delicious meal and stay for our Featured Speaker: Mr. Frank Stetson of Training & Certification Specialists of Manchester, NH.
