We've just wrapped up our 2020 TSCA Convention. If you didn't get to join us, you missed some incredible sessions. We did record sessions this year and we have a team that is working to make those ready for public access. Watch this space for more information. While the release won't be immediate, we are working to provide access to the recordings as quickly as we are able.
Start making plans now to join us for next year's convention. We are scheduled to hold convention October 13-16, 2021 at the Omni San Antonio Hotel at the Colonnade.
Congratulations go out to Ryan Lovell who was just voted in as our Vice President-Elect.
Thanks so much to our out-going President, Mendy Meurer-Busby, who led this organization through so many changes this past year. She reminded us at convention that words are sacred and that kindness really matters.
