And in recognition of almost 4 weeks since we had to go Virtual, we will start hosting a virtual Office Half Hour.

Tune in Wednesday 4/15/2020 via Facebook Live from 2:00-2:30pm. You simply go to our page on Facebook to “attend.”

You can email in advance or ask on the post during the “Live Office Half Hour” any questions or things you want some help or insight on. I’ll answer everyone’s questions or get the answer for you.

Talk to you soon!
