Message

Greetings my fellow Pacific Northwester’s! Six more weeks of winter according to Punxsutawney Phil. Although River and I have been out enjoying the snow, we are ready for the warmer climate and eager for the beginning of summer since we have so much to look forward to, most importantly, the PNWD-IAI conference! The schedule of lectures and workshops will be published soon, and I know you are going to be just as excited as I am when you see what an amazing line-up of speakers and activities we have planned. I am working with www.VisitSpokane.com to compile a list of must-see activities, experiences, and eats that Spokane has to offer. I am even working on getting a Pub Crawl activity planned for our group who may want to socialize and network outside of the conference venue while navigating some great breweries around the town. Some more webinars are being planned to continue our commitment to bringing training to our members throughout the year. Do not forget to reach out to me with any questions, advice, or feedback. I am always here for you and eager to help in any way I can. Please be safe and enjoy these last few weeks of winter!

With warm regards – Angela Hilliard, PNWD-IAI President
