Hello –
Wow, a huge shout-out and thank you to our members who completed the MPI Global 2021 survey. In the middle of a pandemic, we scored 84% in chapter member satisfaction. Seeing such a high score really matters to me, the board and all the other volunteers that drive this chapter. Knowing we are hitting marks makes us aim higher and do bigger, better things for our community.
As most of you know, last year we created a Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee. The committee has been an integral part of moving the chapter forward and for this reason, the Office of the President has decided to add a director of diversity, equity and inclusion to our board of directors. The role is open and slated to be filled by Sept. 28. We are seeking a strong leader who can build on the work that our DEI Committee has already done and lead us up the path to ensure that we champion each and every one of our members. More information about the role can be found here, and you can apply here.
As we move forward and inch back to live, we have several volunteer opportunities available across all facets of the chapter. Whether you want to learn a new skill or hone an existing one, whether you have an hour or lots of time on your hands, we want you to be involved with our community. Committee descriptions and more information can be found here.
Last but certainly not least, it was FANTASTIC to be back in-person for not one but two events last month. First, our Annual Industry Summer Bash presented by HSMAI NYC at the brand new Margaritaville Resort Times Square was a perfect setting for seeing each other face-to-face again. Then we hosted our first After Six Mix since 2019 at Mustang Harry’s, bringing it back to the location of our first ever After Six Mix. It was great to see everyone, and I hope to see more of you at our upcoming events.

Yours in hospitality –
