Last month's Round Up of prospective Class of 2006
interns was very successful, with 16 attendees "signing in." We now have
a total of 25 applicants. Sandy Hiatte, First Vice President, and Sue
Chellew, Hospitality Chairman, did a great job in putting together this
event.
But
with a large class expected in January, there will likewise be a need
for mentors for these interns. Our mentor program gives each new intern
an immediate "friend" in the association, as well as someone to answer
questions, give advice, and be a "link" to projects, while completing
their busy class schedule. Having a mentor for each intern is an
important part of helping the class succeed.
If you are interested in being a mentor for 2006, please
email me.
