President Report:  

In April we experienced a new website.  We are extremely excited and very anxious to get feedback on this new website.  Please don't hesitate to give us your thoughts as to how we can make it better for you...the members.

May brought us another terrific educational experience.  Our journey began in Ireland for the Social Hour showcasing our Host Finnegan's Irish Amber along with the traditional sounds of Irish music by Tim Fitzgerald, Bag Piper.

We then traveled to Russia for a variety of potatoes that were very tasty and uniquly presented.  Kevin Meidl with Kettle One was the featured speaker who educated us on the history and traditions of vodka.  We were able to do a comparative vodka tasting to see the differences in the flavors and smells of the products.

Thank you for attending our monthly meetings and events.  Our attendance is at an all time high.  We are extremely interested in your thoughts as to how we can perform to get the most of your NACE membership. We have many more exciting events to come this year.  Please do not hesitate to call or email me any ideas, thoughts, or feedback.  We are excited to be of service to you.  We look forward to seeing you at our meetings to come.

Yours in Hospitality,
