It was terrific to have so many new people at our convention. We are truly
fortunate to have such a dynamic leadership team and members who are fully
capable of sharing our philosophy and helping to grow the federation.

I am looking forward to another year of learning and growing with all of
you.

With gratitude and joy,

Marilyn
