Our fall series was well received and well attended - thank you all! We look forward to seeing you at our New Year Webinar Series beginning in January 2021. We'll keep the same approach - Zoom meetings on the second Wednesday of each month. Please save these dates for now - more info to come!
Great news from the WCC- they are processing the Maryland CEU for those of you who were able to attend all three in the series. You should receive them in the next couple of weeks. We have arranged for the same for the next three - attend all Webinars in the series and get the Maryland CEU!
We'll send out more information, of course, but let us know if you have any questions or suggestions in the meantime!
Both organizations hope you have a safe and pleasant holiday season and will see you in the New Year!

We are very excited to welcome new sponsor,FlipYours Fitness &Wellness and look forward to hearing from her at ourFREE WEBINAR 9/9/20 11 am TOPIC: WHOLE-ISTIC HEALTH.
We are all feeling the effects of COVID and having all our conferences and personal vacations and trips canceled. Many of us have been unable to see even loved ones! So, we thought we would include a 15 minute session before and after the program to give anyone who would like an opportunity to catch up, just as we normally would before and between sessions! Only via Zoom, of course! Feel free to have your video and sound on when you enter, but PLEASE mute yourself when the program starts.
As I was working on the marketing material for the is chat opportunity I began to think of it as a lounge and that led me to look for appropriate videos/pictures to include here. I found this one especially amusing - enjoy and see you 9/9!
