90th Annual Meeting

Looking ahead can ease a lot of future stress. A few smart moves now can pay off big later:

Join us at 5:00 p.m. for cocktails (with complimentary beer and wine), followed by our business meeting. Hear about everything we accomplished in 2025 and get a first look at the exciting plans ahead for 2026. Dinner will be served immediately after the meeting with no cost to the member. We’ll also be hosting a silent auction to benefit the Alisa Ann Ruch Burn Foundation. Last year, we raised $1,000 and were able to send one child to camp. This year, let’s aim even higher—help us raise $2,000 so we can send two kids to camp!
All Members are invited!

Will you join us? Please go online or email [email protected] to RSVP by Friday, February 6.
