I just got the notification that USHPA renewed our Chapter Status for 2011. There was some concern that the new rules put in place at the fall USHPA Board meeting might have been targeted at eliminating the Hawks. But it appears that cooler heads prevailed and I got the notification earlier today that we had been renewed. Here's part of the Chapter Information report:

I'm assuming the last two letters are the initials of the staff member who performed the update (Erin R. in the early years, and Beth H. in the last two years).
So we're good for another year. Let's make it a good one!!
