EPAA Board retreat a success (despite fire!)
Wow! association events calendar industry news local award winners and much more!
What an amazing retreat! The Board of Directors, Association staff and Committee Chairs brainstormed this weekend in Ruidoso at their annual retreat. Despite a raging forest fire, threats of evacuation from the hotel, downed telephone lines, and being unable to use credit cards in the town, the Association members managed to have a remarkably productive meeting. I want to thank all members who dedicated their time and efforts to make this retreat the success that it was. The amount of ideas produced to meet the goals and objectives for the coming year was phenomenal and I know that we will be able to use this infor
mation to achieve success in each and every committee. I also want to thank all the families who joined us at the retreat. I enjoyed meeting with spouses and especially the children. I know that my three kids enjoyed that as well and made many new friends. A special “Thank You” to Maurice Kropp for the relaxing evening at his beautiful cabin. The drinks were cold, the snacks were tasty and the deer were entertaining! This retreat was a great start to a fun and exciting year for our Association! -Eric Heller EPAA President
