President's Message | ||||||
Hooray - Summer is here! Thanks to the sun shining its face more days than not, the summer months tend to be full of vacations, swimming, picnics, bike rides and pretty much any fun adventure outdoors. If your month is anything like mine, it’s going to be a busy one! This July, ATDps is taking a brief pause on most of our normal programming to give some space for the additional busy-ness that summer brings. But work has not stopped behind the scenes! In early June, your ATDps Board of Directors met for an all-day retreat to continue planning and preparing for a strong finish in 2018. Together, we brainstormed and calendared and aligned as a team. So what can you look forward to in the last half of the year?
We can’t wait for you to join us to engage, learn, develop and grow. In the meantime, we hope you get a chance to get out and enjoy the sunshine this summer! Erin Clarke |
