St. Louis - Creative and Different

Just got back from a week in St. Louis attending the 98th International IAWP Educational Conference. The conference was terrific due to the hard work of Terri Pasternik, Local Arrangements Chair and Vicki Zimmerlee, Program Chair. Since Missouri does not have an active chapter, Terri and Vicki drafted volunteers from other state chapters to assist with the events. IAWP President Rich Vincent opened the session and ended it with his stewardship report. In between he was busy with IAWP business and handing the baton to incoming President, David Slimp. I was elected as President Elect, Ray Cabrera was elected as Vice President and Linda Barnes was elected as Secretary-Treasurer. They will be a good team to work with this next year.
