This will allow for stronger and more frequent interaction between chapters, allow chapters to have larger leadership roles in their region conference planning and allow more chapters to receive award recognition at our annual banquet.
- The first Leadership in Action modules were presented.
- A New Alumni Chapter was chartered. Alumni in the Middle Tennessee area have a chapter to call their own. At the last meeting of its term, the 2008-2010 National Council approved a petition to recognize the newly formed Middle Tennessee Alumni Chapter (MTAC). The chapter was founded by Katie Peachey and Matt Peachey, with Katie assuming the role of the chapter's first delegate.
