Ignite the Fire ... the theme for the year. Even one month into this 12-month journey, we are already seeing this take shape. The fire comes from the passion, dedication and drive of the active members. 

The 2013-2014 Board of Directors is leading the way in bringing the members together and forming committees. These committees are ensuring that all of the details are addressed to make KCMPI a leading resource in our community. Every time I receive an update about a new industry associate joining the chapter or another member getting involved, I feel the little spark of excitement. Each person in the chapter plays such an integral role in the chapter’s success, and I hope that each member finds a way to be an active part of our membership. 

Where does your passion lie? Social media, numbers, detail planning, education, communication, sponsorships, support, interacting and meeting new people? There is a place for everyone to be involved. I look forward to seeing where you decide to plug in. I cannot wait to see how the coming months will unfold.
