A Look Ahead - by Marissa Todd

​Greetings Apra Mo/Kan!
​
It was amazing to see so many of you in Pittsburgh! Thank you for those who made it out early on Friday to have breakfast and network. Look at all these smiling faces!

​What a great way to unofficially kick off our new Apra Mo/Kan year! This week several of our members in the Kansas City area are gathering to share insights from the Prospect Development conference. We’ll share some of the highlights on our Twitter for members in other areas of our territory. And don’t worry – our professional development committee has many plans in store for other cities including Wichita, Springfield, and mid-Missouri!

Our biggest event every year is always our spring conference. In 2019 we are heading back to St. Louis. Plans are still being made for date and location. If you are interested in helping plan the programming, solicit sponsorships or work on logistics, please contact me so we can get you on the 2019 Conference Committee. We’ll be having our first teleconference meeting sometime in early September, so please let me know by August 31 if you want to be in on the fun. It’s a great way to meet other Chapter members and help create some of our most meaningful programming!

​I’m looking forward to seeing many of you next spring in St. Louis – and hopefully in the months in between at some of our other programs and of course on Twitter! Have an excellent end to summer!
