President's Message

What a beautiful Fall and Summer we are having! I hope that you were all able to enjoy some holidays this summer.

Fall is slowly moving in and with that things seem to get a bit busier. CREW Calgary has some great events coming up to get us geared into Fall. We have the tour of Chinook Centre in September - what a great venue for the annual tour event. We are sure to learn some interesting secrets about Chinook. In October we have our Plug Into CREW event. CREW Calgary made the decision to move the membership drive to October so that any new members can enjoy the benefit of 14 months instead of 12. The membership committee has lined up an excellent speaker that will teach us about life/work balance heading into the busy holiday season. Finally in November we have both our Annual General Meeting and the Christmas Party. Be sure to look for the invitations coming out for these events shortly.

As you can see, all of our committees have been working very hard this year and have some amazing accomplishments. Our chapter would not be as strong as we are without all of their help. So thank you to our committees; your time and efforts are greatly appreciated and we look forward to working with you over the next few months.

The CREW Convention is fast approaching. This year it is being held in October in Dallas, Texas. The line-up of speakers and activities is excellent. I am happy to announce that two of our members will be joining us as winners of the CREW raffle that we had in June. The winners are Lois Wellwood and Karen Thomas! For anyone else that is interested in joining us, it is not too late - be sure to register soon.

I hope that you all have a lovely fall.
