Description

We hope you all had a joyous and healthy holiday season!  Please join us for our ASID Illinois West Peer Group round table planning session to discuss relevant topics for upcoming peer group meetings in 2019!  We have a list of ideas and venues we've gathered from our previous meetings, now it's time to select which topics are most important to you all and designate a month for each event accordingly. We also are open to new ideas so please don't be shy to share some of your suggestions with us during our meeting on Wednesday, January 16th.  Please RSVP soon so we can confirm our lunch reservation at Harry & Eddie's in Hinsdale.  Looking forward to seeing you all soon!

Thank you,

Katharine Andrews & Marcia Stoll (ASID Illinois West Leader & Co-Leader)

P.S. I'd like thank all of you for supporting us in our roles as peer group leaders and for joining us at our previous ASID Illinois West Peer Group meetings in 2018!  We greatly appreciate your friendship and we value your input.  We're excited about what we can all accomplish together in 2019.  Wishing you all a healthy, prosperous, and Happy New Year!
