hank goodness for the cooler fall weather in South Carolina. At press time, we’re enjoying a crisp change in temperatures and low(er) humidity that’s a welcome change from the dog days of summer! We have lots of news items to discuss, so let’s get started!
Charleston Conference News and Updates We’re taking a new approach to “hybrid” this year with a parallel event — the in-person conference will be held November 1 – 4, followed by a virtual conference November 14 – 18. There’s still time to register for the virtual conference! Be sure to join us online for all of the same great content from the in-person week plus exclusive, virtual-only sessions and networking events. Visit https://chsconf. cadmore.media/ to see our agenda and to register! We’re pleased to be working with Cadmore Media to bring the agenda and virtual event platform to life — thanks to their team for all their support and for sponsoring the conference! continued on page 8
