Happy November everyone – I hope that you all put that extra hour to very good use!
           
I was privileged to be invited to attend the 2nd Annual Women to Women Conference in Vaughan as the guest of
Springhill Suites by Marriott Vaughan on Wednesday, November 2nd.

It was awe inspiring to be in the company of so many accomplished professional women and to hear what inspires and motivates them. I encourage you all to attend events like this when the opportunity presents itself.            

November is a funny month for me. It’s in between Thanksgiving and Halloween, and Christmas. The US really has this one figured out – Halloween in October, Thanksgiving in November and Christmas in December. It does, however, give us all time for planning those family and holiday events that we have coming up. We thought this would be a perfect time to discover how to plan and host a memorable holiday event.

I hope that you will join us on November 16th to learn more.

For a quick update on our Chapter of Excellence journey. We are working on the budget and financials, and they will be ready for submission before the deadline of December 31st. Our updated business plan is finalized and will be submitted by the end of November. We will talk about the Member of Excellence at the meeting on November 16th.

Hope to see you all at the November meeting!
Come out and support your Chapter. We are here for you.
