Special Message from the President - Coronavirus and Its Impact on the Business World As more and more clarity is being provided regarding the Coronavirus and its impact on the business world, we are becoming more sensitive to the concerns of adhering to the CDC’s recommendations, in particular, involving “social distancing.” The safety and well-being of our Members and Business Partners is always our number one concern and the impact from hosting social events may have on our daily lives. While our various committees have planned outstanding education sessions and wonderful social events for the month of March, we have made the difficult decision to cancel all Chapter events for March, including any education sessions, our Spring Social and our Change of Gavel. We recognize that many of you will be disappointed with the cancellations, especially since our events are always well-received, but it is our hope that you will appreciate the fact that we made this decision after several thoughtful and considerate discussions. Please look for these events to be rescheduled, hopefully later in April or May. Please feel free to reach out to Kathy Remetta or me with any concerns. Association Coronavirus Support
