A Note from the Chairs 
Dear HYPsters,

It's holiday time!  This seasons is usually full of the shopping rush, bad sweater parties and hopefully some tasty eggnog.  As the year comes to a close, we cannot be any more excited about HYP's accomplishments in 2008....

...But don't fret!  There is still a lot in store before the end of the year.  Be sure to check out the calendar for the events this December and upcoming months.  First is our social hour this Thursday at the Tavern.  Then next week, join us for The Independant Workforce Xmas Concert with the support of 101X and Van's -- the original skate shoe -- at Emo's  on the 11th at Emo's.  And the following Saturday - the 13th - is our HYP Volunteer Day. 

We hope to see you at any or all of these events!
 
On behalf of HYP, thank you for all of your support, volunteerism and advocacy this year!  This positive impact on our community would not have been possible without you. 
 
Be sure to tell other how you have helped Change Lives.  Our future is bright!
 
Happy Holidays,

Brooke Clark Rogers                              Chris Day
