Perhaps it’s hard to believe the new year is less than 30 days away, but as we know, time certainly flies in the PR world. In this month’s Points to Ponder video, I recap how we measured against our 2016 goals, as well as a key learning for one of our events we’ll be hosting in 2017.

We also welcome Jean Peat, APR as chapter president next year, as well as our new board of directors who will continue the current momentum and success of the chapter. Thank you in advance for giving her the same incredible support you have provided me, as it has been a privilege serving as your president the past two years; certainly many valuable experiences I’ll be proud to take with me.

In this season of thankfulness, I would be remiss if I didn’t further applaud your membership and support of the chapter. The goals we’ve accomplished, which help to continue our chapter operations, would not have been possible without you; our incredible members and guests. It’s truly a collective effort as we support and strengthen each other and our careers.

But, we’re certainly not resting or stopping as the year comes to a close. Here is the current schedule of events during the next three months:
