Dear SHDA Members, Partners, and Friends,

As summer comes to a close, I hope everyone has had the opportunity to enjoy time with family and friends and is looking forward to a strong finish to the season.

It continues to be an exciting time for SHDA. As our organization grows, I want to thank our Board of Directors, committee members, new partners, and longtime supporters for their continued commitment. Your involvement and support are what allow SHDA to continue moving forward and strengthening our industry.

We are already looking ahead to the 57th Annual SHDA Industry Summit, May 3–6, 2027, at the Hilton Phoenix Resort at the Peak in Phoenix, Arizona. Our goal is to make the 2027 Summit our best meeting yet. We are heading back to our roots and focusing on what has always made SHDA special—building meaningful relationships, creating business opportunities, sharing ideas, and bringing our industry together.

Our SHDA Golf Outing is another great opportunity to connect. If you haven't signed up yet, I encourage you to join us. We are working to make this year's outing bigger and better, offering a great day of business, networking, and fun.

I look forward to seeing our Board and committee members at our Annual meeting in November and continuing the momentum we have built throughout the year.

Thank you for your continued involvement and support of SHDA. I look forward to seeing everyone soon and to an exciting year ahead.

Warm regards,

Charles Weaver President, SHDA
