A view from the river. |
My husband Bob and I love to entertain at our house on the
Homosassa River in Homosassa, Florida. My husband started going to that area of
Florida for fishing trips and we loved it so much we knew we wanted to make it
our home away from home. We love to allow people the space to relax and unwind
allowing for deep and open conversations. It was for these reasons that the NPC
Executive Committee decided to have our January 2013 retreat at the river.

While at the river we laughed a lot and made some great
memories, but we also envisioned much for the Conference to accomplish over the
next 10 months. We plan to work on marketing, branding
and College Panhellenic services along with ongoing board and volunteer
development. Being an authentic leader means letting people see the real
you. It was a lot to think about and digest, but being at the river allows for
those meaningful, thoughtful discussions.
It is my hope that my fellow Executive Committee members
walked away with a better sense of direction for the next 10 months but also
some peace from time spent with friends in a serene location.
