 President's Message

Our association is only as good as our membership. The best recommendation that a person can receive about our Guild is from a member to a non-member. I ask everyone to keep in mind that there is no charge for a first-time member to visit at one of our meetings. So, tell your friends about us and invite them to the next general membership meeting.

In order to get them to come to the meeting, you may have to call and remind them. You may even have to offer them a ride. We will do our best to ensure that we have interesting guest speakers. We ask your help in recruiting new members.

I hope to see everyone at the Digital Trade Show

Ciao,

Giancarlo
