Monthly speakers have been confirmed through March – just looking for an April presenter and the monthly events calendar will be set. At our next committee meeting (Oct 19), we’ll start discussing conference presenters in earnest. Jim Langley is already confirmed (Melissa, can you confirm if a confirmation email has already been sent to Jim or if we still need to do that?) as the breakfast speaker. I am attending the National CGP conference next month, so between that conference and the two this week, I will hopefully bring back lots of great ideas for breakout sessions for our conference
