This Chapter is Rockin' and a Look Ahead to September 2010

Dear Chapter Members and Friends-
OY!
What a busy month our 'little chapter that could!' has had!  We kicked off on 8/18 at The Lorien Hotel and Spa with a standing room only crowd- great food, (kinda pricey) cash bar and wonderful participation.  We are happy to say that this event encouraged two new members to join our chapter and one attendee looks to join up with our sister chapters in the DE-MD-DC Division.  So, that's awesome.

Today, our superb membership chair, Jan Szych, CPS substituted in at the last minute for our under the weather- chapter treasurer, Evan Thorne for the brown bag program hosted at ASCO. And, in September, we have even more good stuff coming down the pike.

We'll be unveiling our revamped web site in early September and later in September- we'll have our great program on 9/23 on Ethics.
