Message from the President The year is off to a great start. We have seen member engagement in Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, and Kansas with the Cocktail Chatter events. We just finished with the program in North West Arkansas and what a great event! Great education, networking and company. I hadn’t been to the area for 10 years and oh my how it has changed. It is a very impressive area. Cherie Jones and her committee put together an awesome event. There are more great events on the horizon. Make sure you check the website for updates as Headquarters is providing us with the platform to update our site with information specific to our chapter. I hope to see you at the KC MIC and or the May 16th Meeting on Balancing Work and Life in a Connected World.
