Networking Pizza Party a Success

IWPA members gathered at the Lansing home of Marlene Cook on March 30 for pizza and networking. Marlene excitedly notes that six of the attendees were new members. Art Brauer passed out brochures and presented a brief commercial for membership, but most of time was spent getting to know each other on a one-to-one basis and a good time was had by all. Networking is one of the many perks of IWPA membership. You don’t have to wait until the next event. If you aren’t already a member, join now!
