Hello CCCHS Members! We are excited to start off a new year of Council and as always, we will NOT have a Monthly Membership Meeting in January. Our next meeting will be on February 1st at Calvary Church. In honor of February and all that it entails, our meeting theme will be “Share the Love.” We encourage you to help us share the love (and benefits) of Council by inviting a friend or colleague to the meeting. Our goal this year is to increase membership and what better way to do that than to have new members take advantage of our early bird membership discount!? Stay warm and healthy this month and we’ll see you in February. Melissa Bottorf CCCHS President PA Link to ADRC |
