Hello everybody:
The weather is starting to heat up a little as well as our educational events. Don’t miss the April AGA luncheon scheduled on April 21st; the topic will be on lead pipe replacement in Madison. Since the March webinar had to be cancelled, we will be honoring CGFM month at this luncheon also, bringing the proclamations signed by both the governor and the mayor at this time. All CGFMs can attend the lunch for free!!!
We have a great group of speakers scheduled for the May AGA Symposium scheduled on May 11; check our website for more details.
I hope to see you all at both of these upcoming events.
