See what you made possible in 2016

With staff of eight we are a pretty tight knit team working on many projects at once.  Since January we’ve had our hands full and we know you have too, so we thought we’d offer you a quick resume of what your association has been up to.  Not everything has been listed, just the highlights and each achievement listed below will take you to a story on our blog.  Thanks to your support it has been a very productive year, one we are proud of and want to share.
