Happy Monday! Say hello to the DFWAE Board of Directors for the 2018/2019 fiscal year, announced at last week's luncheon! We are excited to see the extraordinary things that these leaders will do for the association.

DFWAE Celebrate Associations offers special thanks to Jeanette Chawdhury and Heather Wilden from the American Association for Respiratory Care (AARC). They shared their association's training for Millennial leaders and how at their annual event they broke a Guinness World Record. Emcee Jeff Crilley, President and CEO of Real News Public Relations, helped tease out how to garner publicity. What a great luncheon!

Thank you to everyone who attended yesterday's Celebrate Associations luncheon! We were able to award DFWAE's finest for their hard work throughout the 2017/18 fiscal year. Congratulations to all award winners!
