To my fellow members:
Happy Holidays to the membership. I am grateful for our members and for the professional support offered by the IMA, our Councils and local Chapters. I hope each one of you had a chance to take a deep breath, count your own blessings and enjoy your Thanksgiving. I’m sure everyone is now gearing up for the sprint to year-end.
As I look back on the year, I reflect on the many positive activities we accomplished as a group:
- · We completed our summer planning for the new fiscal year in record time
- · We had some amazing speakers and topics
- · We had a plant tour
- · We donated our time and worked at a local Food Bank
- · We represented the IMA and our Chapter at two university career fairs
- · We had new faces and volunteers joining us
- · We had some great, fun-filled networking sessions
- · We had several members step-up to help kick-start the 2025 NERC Conference Planning
- · We had several members earn their CMAs and CSCAs
I’m very proud of our membership for their time, efforts and camaraderie. Even at the local level we have the ability to impact and elevate our profession. So pat yourselves on the back!!
So, please come out to join us at our next event at Elizabeth’s in Rocky Hill. It’s clear we’re a great group of professionals to hang out with! Just look at that list above.
