This is an important opportunity for delegates and chapter leaders to connect with their counterparts across North America and expand business and chapter networks.

Business cards are a “must” at this event.
Each chapter has an assigned board member serving as its liaison to CREW Network. Join your board liaison and representatives from other chapters in your group for a networking dinner with an emphasis on sharing your chapter best practices, challenges or current trends. Delegates and chapter presidents only. Each diner will be responsible for covering the cost of his/her own meal and transportation. (Cash is recommended.)
The CREW Network Council Meeting will begin with breakfast on Friday, February 11 at 7:30 a.m. While only chapter delegates are given voting rights during this meeting, all attendees are welcome. Following the Council Meeting, attendees will participate in Best Practices Workshops.
