The Spring schedule is yours to keep, but return the registration form and let us know what you will be attending so that we can plan accordingly. Our ILR lunches and banquet are included in the membership fee, but please let us know if you will be attending in order to get an accurate headcount before each meal. Please keep in mind that while our meals are served buffet style, they are not all you can eat. Members must be present to eat; seconds or carry outs are not allowed. New members: Member binders will be available at our banquet and luncheons so be sure and pick up yours.
Members now have an official “name badge.” Please wear it to every ILR activity that you attend.
Also, our classes and workshops are designed for our members only. Guests may attend lunches and travel activities for a non-membership fee. Those are included on the schedule.
Our trips will depart from campus. Parking will be in the Regional Workforce Training Center parking lot. Please help us keep on schedule by arriving at the designated departure time.
