Chapter Happenings and Updates
Message from Chapter President Anita Moulton

Given the feedback from the 1-question survey last month (see results below) we will work to host safe, in-person events soon if things continue to look positive on the Covid front. Over 1/2 of you are ready to meet again in the next six months (following safety protocols, of course) and another 20% will be ready by fall. Our Annual Golf Outing on June 21 will be our first in-person event - please plan on joining us for that!
We have many virtual webinars lined up with more in the works including our professional development sessions - Challenges of the CFO (end of April), Annual M&A Conference (May 5, 10 and 12) and The Future is Now (end of June). In addition, we know many of you appreciate the opportunity to earn ethics credits so we will be adding these to the lineup soon.
As always, please reach out to either of us if you are looking for a particular resource or if we can help you get connected to other members or our strategic partners.
Sincerely,
|
