I can't think of many things that are more magical than when the leaves change colors in the fall. It makes the hustle and bustle of prepping for the holidays and the new year a lot more enjoyable. Personally, it is a reminder to slow down and appreciate the beauty in life. Before all of the leaves fall, I challenge you to take a stroll outside to gaze at the beautiful leaf colors and heck—go jump in the leaves like you did as a kid!
I'm excited to report that IABC Harrisburg had an extremely successful Member Month in October. We had four new members and four renewed members. Kudos to our VP of Membership, Sandy Kern for another fabulous job in recruiting and retaining!
