I don’t know about you but I feel like I’m forgetting to do something or go somewhere this fall? It feels really weird not to have just returned from our fall conference or being in crunch time headed to one soon. I’m feeling a bit sad not seeing all my C.A.R.E. friends twice this year, but it’s so exciting having extra time to plan our second annual conference in my home state of Indiana! Indianapolis is shaping up to be a fantastic event…read more below about what we’ve got planned so far. Let me (likely) be the first to say…Happy Holidays! Yes, the holiday season is upon us in just a few short weeks. I hope you spend lots of quality time with family and friends that you cherish in the coming months.
Until next month, Au revoir!
