Thanks for joining us!

It was a dream to have you all join us for our once-a-year rendezvous. You filled the room, while  food from the Tickled Pear and desserts from Redbird, filled our bellies. Our board members did a fantastic job answering thoughtful questions during the breakout sessions and we wrapped up the evening with a classical guitar performance by special guest Dr. Bill White.
