Spring is getting closer along with UID in March and the Summit in April. We had a record number of Al Hoffman Memorial Scholarship applications and you can read more about the 2025 recipient on the SHDA website and in this Newsletter.
Everyone should have received the Summit registration emails and the early bird timing has passed as you read this. However, regular registration remains open until April 11. You won't want to miss the Summit, we will have the annual golf tournament with some new opportunities and the Ben Silver Seminar will feature Steve McClatchy presenting Leading Relationships. We will have many networking events and a casino night. We will also transition new officers during the Tuesday Business Update lunch.
If you want to learn more about serving on the SHDA committees please reach out to me or any Board/Committee member before or during the Summit. The committees decide the locations of future Summits, select the Ben Silver speakers and make sure that SHDA continues to be a successful organization in the future for all members. All committee and Board members are volunteers representing both Distributor and Associate members.
I look forward to seeing everyone on April 28 at the Hilton Phoenix Tapatio Cliffs Resort, a new hotel for us in a longstanding Summit location. Safe travels.
