Our Chapter met to celebrate Emergency Nurses Week on 10/20/22 at a Meso Modern Mediterranean restaurant. Great food and a good time was had by all. We have completed our 2023 calendar and will continue to have social events and business meetings on alternate months. We discussed our Annual Update which will be held in the fall of 2023. The theme will be, “Anything but Covid”. More details to come!

March 2022
Our last meeting was a non-business meeting, We brought in dinner and then attended a cupcake decorating class. Seven members attended, one was a first time attendee, We each decorated and took home a dozen cupcakes. Our next meeting will be a business meeting. We are trying to find ways to bring in new members. I have interest by a member about being a first time delegate! She is unable to attend our meetings but is trying to find a way to get involved.
