Conclave 2015 –Birthday Celebrations—CMP Colleagues Working for You!
Dear Fellow CMPs!
I am proud to have three great messages to share in July.
I hope that by now you have registered for CONCLAVE 2015! For those of you who have previously attended, I know I am preaching to the choir about the great educational components and wonderful fellowship you will find in Reno-Tahoe. To those of you who have never been to a Conclave, I hope to personally share with you moments that reflect your enthusiasm in participating! This morning I received a message from a brand new CMP who said: "Joanne, I am so excited to be attending my first Conclave." Let’s all keep that excitement at a high level. This Conclave is sure to be a treat for all who attend!
I hope that you have all heard and read that this is the 30th anniversary year for the CMP. In June we had a very successful celebration in Washington, DC, where more than 75 CMPs attended. It was a lovely evening with good fellowship and a fantastic way for the new CMP Governance Commission to get to know many CMPs in the DC area. The 30th Anniversary year will be celebrated in Reno during Conclave so that everyone has the opportunity to share in the festivities. This is another great reason to take part in Conclave this year.
Speaking of our CMP Governance Commission, we had the opportunity to meet face-to-face in June and take a look into the future of the CMP program. All members are dedicating their expertise to work for the greater good of the CMP community and we share our pride with all of you in holding and promoting our designation. The Governance Commission will hold another meeting prior to Conclave and I look forward to introducing this dedicated group of professionals to all of you during Conclave 2015.
I would personally like to wish all of you a wonderful summer and look forward to seeing you at all the major trade shows and events this year!
With warm regards,
Joanne
