PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE<br />

By: Marcy Marquis<br />

It is that time of year where we start thinking about<br />

the Holidays. Hopefully, this year we can all enjoy<br />

gathering with friends and family. We also start to<br />

think about the past year and wonder what the new<br />

year will bring.<br />

2022 also means new Board Members. We are looking<br />

forward to several fresh faces and fresh ideas.<br />

Please make sure when you watch for the email for<br />

voting. If anyone is interested in participating on<br />

committee in 2022, please reach out me.<br />

<strong>AAHAM</strong> WI had an amazing year. We had our first<br />

hybrid conference in the Spring. Our Fall Conference<br />

was 100% virtual. Our education committee did an<br />

amazing job planning both conferences and adjusted<br />

to a hybrid and virtual formats. Thank you to our education<br />

committee members: Curt Glaunert, Kaye<br />

Preive, Glynis Evans, Beverly Pope, Chris Fisher,<br />

Dustie Kline, Nicole Querio, Colleen Nolan and Mark<br />

Herder.<br />

The committees are Education, Newsletter / Marketing,<br />

Certification, Membership and Government Relations.<br />

Our board meetings are also open to our<br />

membership. If you would like to learn more about<br />

<strong>AAHAM</strong> and want to attend a board meeting, please<br />

let me know and I will add to the meeting invite.<br />

I hope everyone has an amazing holiday season. Enjoy<br />

family and friends.<br />

We all really missed seeing everyone in person.<br />

However, the positive side of virtual is having so<br />

many guests. People who normally cannot attend are<br />

now able to participate. Our Education Committee is<br />

busy working on several free webinars, so we can<br />

continue to provide education between now and our<br />

Spring 2022 conference.<br />

I know many of you are busy with your year-end projects.<br />

The board is busy with starting our 2022 membership<br />

drive. Our membership fee of $30.00. We<br />

currently have 81 members. Our goal for 2022 is to<br />

hit 100 members. I would like to encourage everyone<br />

to please renew your membership.<br />
