Mark your calendar for Strategic Planning (part 2) on Tuesday April 27 6 PM. Everyone can attend.
Last week was very successful.
Sherry Davis was inspired. She says "The first strategic planning session was an inspiring and positive session engaging our clubs members in a great discussion about our values and strengths! I’m excited for our upcoming session to set  goals for our clubs future!" 
Lynda Kavanagh is excited about next week "I’m looking forward to the second Strategic Plan. It was fun and very engaging- who knew the process would this good."
