Dear Members,
Summer has finally ended, and we look towards the fall holidays. It is time for the quarterly update on some of what is happening at SHDA.
Due to the tragedy in Maui this summer the Board will be meeting in early November in Dallas to work on making sure 2024 will be another exciting year for SHDA. SHDA has promoted education to its members for years and UID held each March is an excellent program. Members should look at who in their company can benefit from this program and SHDA through the Hoffman Scholarship can help. See our website for information on both.
Finally, please remember to save the date as we will be heading to Nashville, TN and the downtown Embassy Suites for the Industry Advancement Summit on April 29 through May 3, 2024.
I look forward to seeing everyone in a new setting next spring. I hope everyone has an enjoyable holiday season.
Regards,
Lance Johnsen
Sincerely,
Lance Johnsen
SHDA President
