From chapter president Mariah Ligas: "Our Frühlingstreffen is coming up on April 22nd! We are excited to have two splendid sessions from our own Mary Boldt as well as Christopher Gwin from SPARK. New this year, we are offering a hybrid format to make it easier for those who live further away (our chapter is quite large!) to attend. Also new -- the buddy price! If it's been a while since you've attended a meeting, or if this would be your first, we invite you to attend for a discounted price. If you are a frequent participant, bring a buddy! :) Je mehr, desto besser! ACT 48 hours are available for attendees. Light breakfast and lunch will be provided for in-person attendees. You can register HERE: https://forms.gle/LsiNNXkCMwikw7Ut7"
