As Spring blossoms, I'm reminded that each year, we have an opportunity to renew and refresh our minds and our spirits, whether for work or for play.
While we are winding down our professional development programs for the year, we certainly are going out with some exciting programs with visits from Patrick Knoll, Creative Director at DDB Chicago and winner of not one, but two Cocky Awards from USC; and Chiqui Cartagena of Meredith Integrated Marketing will take a look at marketing to the ever-growing Hispanic population.


Congratulations to our ADDY Award winners for 2007. Columbia is filled with a great amount of marketing and advertising talent and I'm proud to be a part of this exciting profession.

I have also been extremely proud to serve as your president for this past year. It's been a challenging and rewarding experience and I must say a tremendous 'Thank You' to the Board of Directors who give so willingly of their time and talent.
If you've been considering joining Columbia AD Club, visit us at our April and May luncheons to see what we're about.

Sincerely,

Margaret Gregory, President
