August Newsletter

Dear Readers,

Growth and community; this is what our chapter is all about. Last month we announced the chapter’s need for new members and member participation. I am thrilled to share that several members showed interest in getting more involved in the chapter. Our very own past president Lacey Corbin will serve as the chapter’s treasurer next year. As we prepare to switch gears from surviving to thriving, please consider reaching out to the board members, checking out the website for updates, and attending this month’s open house to meet council and board members and learn about opportunities to help us help you grow.

Esther Asham
NTLSC President
