Dear Members, As summer begins, it’s a good moment to reflect on the year so far and recognize the people who’ve helped keep things running smoothly. The Great Lakes Chapter has continued to operate seamlessly this year, thanks in large part to the leadership and experience of our new Executive Director, Sarah Walsh. We’re grateful to Pete Arbour for identifying Sarah as a strong candidate to succeed Joan and for helping guide that transition. And to Sarah—thank you for hitting the ground running and bringing your expertise to the role. Your contributions have already made a meaningful impact.
