AUGUST 2019 NEWSLETTER
WELCOME, CLASS OF 2020!

BAM! Just like that and we are welcoming the twentieth class of LMT! We started the year off with our second annual Opening Retreat and Alumni Reception and Dinner. The weather and resulting horrible traffic, did not stop A LOT of alumnus to meet and greet the Class of 2020. The Opening Retreat theme was Humble Leadership led by Dr. Trish Holliday (LMT 2018). Ralph Schulz (LMT 2004), President and CEO of the Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce was the day one speaker with Rudy Kalis being the keynote speaker during the dinner. The Opening Retreat ended on Friday with eyes and minds focused on the upcoming first session in Montgomery County.

Thank you to the Opening Retreat Planning Committee Chair, Reggie Mudd (LMT 2013) for pulling off a fantastic retreat! THANK YOU, alumnus! You volunteered and supported our participants and they felt it! Cheers to you and the Class of 2020!
