  • "This (strategic plan) was a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. But it was not a thankless one - the members of the Board obviously appreciate our efforts and fully support our plan. I thought the presentation to the Board went remarkably well. A special thanks to Pat (Support Center consultant) for guiding us through this process in a determined, yet cheerful, manner."
