Life in Bloom

Mid-Year Meeting

A note from our President

Thank you ALL for taking an hour out of your busy schedules to be with us for the Mid-Year meeting on Zoom on Sunday evening March 13th. Changing the date, time, and format to accommodate as many people as possible was a challenge on top of the time change.


Our volunteer professional organization relies on all of us to thrive, so, thanks!


We have all learned that virtual meetings are efficient, yet can't be replaced by in-person gatherings with spontaneous dialogue!


Congratulations to Courtney Turner, AIFD & Rae Roberts Griffith, AIFD the winners of free symposium registrations!


Thanks everyone for attending the virtual meeting during the busy spring season. Hope to see everyone in person in Vegas!


Happy Hump Day!
