Notes from the President I trust that everyone's new year is off to a productive start. Let me take a moment to thank Heather Deighan for her dedicated service to CPRS(NS), and congratulate her on her new arrival - a baby boy. Heather's hard work on the sponsorship and communications front often goes unseen, except for those of us on the Board. She is a big reason why our chapter is in the good shape it is. We look forward to her return in 2006. » Complete Story CPRS National Conference Winter 2005 is already past and that means the 2005 CPRS National Conference is just a few short months away!
