The leadership and staff just completed PCOC’s Palm Springs Board of Directors meeting and our important Committee meetings. The occasion provided the opportunity to experience a series of wonderful events. We appreciate all of those that attended December 8th and December 9th.

We especially want to thank all our sponsors at both our golf tournament and the Board of Directors Meeting and Reception. It was a good turnout, and attendees accomplished significant business over the two days, particularly the next steps on consideration of our four strategic pillars developed at PCOC’s recent Strategic Thinking Process Event held earlier in November. Those specific pillars are Member Experience, Legislative & Regulatory, Member Benefits/Business Development and Organizational Structure.

The strategic event brought together a diverse mixture of Executive leadership, District and Committee Chairs along with a group of highly respected members. The goal was for participants to have discussions that would inspire dynamic ideas and identify bold short and long-term initiatives to restore PCOC's status as the best state pest management association in the country. As we set our sights on the beginning of a new year, we look forward to working with each one of you and your colleagues in that pursuit of excellence.

Finally, we want to wish all of you a joyous and safe holiday season. PCOC’s leadership and staff look forward to a prosperous 2024 for all our members.
