Print this article | Send to Colleague

The board has provided clear directives to follow by approving SPAC recommendations outlined in the 2011-2014 Strategic Plan - Together We Grow. Thank you to all who've been involved in this process.  You have laid the groundwork for future leadership. It will be up to current and future leaders to continue the course provided and move the association forward from this critical juncture.
