What You Missed... If you haven't been to a GIPHCC meeting, March's meeting will be an excellent time to get back into the practice. The GIPHCC luncheons are a good way to catch up on industry topics and network with others. Please plan to be an active member of GIPHCC in 2013. |

Message From The President
31 Years!!
That is not a typo. 31 years of volunteer service that Laura Ciriello-Benedict, Mark Helm, and Eugene Schuler have given to the GIPHCC Board of Directors. Thank you, Laura, Mark, and Eugene!
You have left behind quite a legacy for us to carry on. You have molded the GIPHCC into an association that has received awards and attention throughout the nation. You are leaving the GIPHCC in good financial condition due to your careful spending and planning for the future. You are responsible for our relationship with WTHR/SkyTrak, the cool commercials, and the attention that it brought to our trade.
You have left a lasting impression on the GIPHCC, and I hope that current and future board members will look to you with admiration for inspiration and advice.
Personally, you moved me to get involved, to be more outgoing, and to be awed by what the three of you have accomplished within the GIPHCC. Thank you!
On Feb. 20th I was standing at the podium and telling everyone how we have met at the same place, same time for years; little did I know that Primos could not help us in March on our regular day. So, our March meeting will be a week earlier, March 13th, at Primo's South! I will see you there.
Dave Nance,
President, GIPHCC |
