Happy New Year!


Welcome all of our new members to the Guild. We are so excited about this New Year! We have a lot of ideas for this year but we need your help. Our next meeting is Thursday, February 20 th and it is devoted to you, our members, for your ideas and opinions on what you would like to see happen at future meetings. If you don’t tell us, we don’t know. This will also be a great time for any questions you may have. This is your Guild and we want it to be informative, interesting and FUN!! So come on out and give us your input.

We Believe…

  • That we can do more to help ourselves by helping others.

  • We view each other as colleagues – not as competition.

  • Our opportunities expand as our numbers increase.

  • More good is accomplished for ourselves, our clients and our profession when we work together – as a team.
