New Year, New Newsletter! Figured it was time for some revamping, so here it is. First newsletter of 2019 and we've got some great things to share with you all. We are beyond excited to begin planning #APACA2020 hosted by yours truly. The next year and half of planning will pass us by quicker than we know! And speaking of revamping, we're reaching out to our young planners through what they crave the most - beer. However as always, our YPG events are not limited to those 35 years and younger. We welcome all the support as possible for our young planners and those new(er) to the field. Don't forget that #NPC19 is just around the corner in San Francisco (April) and #APACA2019 in Santa Barbara will roll around in no time (September). Let's do this, y'all!
