President’s Letter for September 2018
New Year’s Message from the President
Now that 2016 has passed, we are full throttle into 2017. This is a grand time to reflect on lessons learned, errors made and successful achievements. The New Year is a time to devote energy on developing our business skills.
Begin your process by becoming a member of the GIPHCC, and if you are currently a member, I challenge you to get involved. Strive for higher achievements by utilizing the resources available through the GIPHCC. Working together as a team member of the GIPHCC, you will have resources available to achieve higher objectives.
This year we are excited about the upcoming events. We have a list of great speakers who will provide valuable information. The first speaker is Troy Carson with Vectren Energy. Troy will be speaking on an overview of natural gas and damage prevention on the 18th of January.
Make 2017 a great year,
Bill Fite
