The goal of most associations is to collaborate, to help everyone advance through the pooling of resources. In the coming months, this association will be working on articles for our newsletter, including experiences that you, the members, are willing to share. At the same time, we are interested in hearing the questions that you want answered.
Below are a list of

topics we're hoping to explore. We need to hear from you about your experiences with any of these items. We would love to publish images to illustrate each topic, making it even clearer to our readership. You will be credited along with a link to your website and/or social media, as well.
Please contact Josh with any questions. Please note: we need your submissions by the 25th of each month to be considered.
