It is a new year and with new beginnings, we like to look back on our successes.

2017 was again a very strong year for CPGR with great programs, and outstanding financial reports. In addition:

• We remain the number ONE council in the country with nearly 360 members.
• CPGR continues to provide outstanding networking for our current and new members.
• We serve the entire front range and have members from Grand Junction, Vail, Kansas, Missouri, Tennessee, Wyoming, New Mexico & South Dakota.
• The 2017 Summer Symposium got rave reviews. Please save the date for August 22 & 23, 2018 for another exciting symposium with keynote speaker Russell James.
• We currently have 15 Legacy Partners, many who joined during our Founding Year, 2017. (See below for our Legacy Partners.)
• We have recently established the CPGR Endowment with a cornerstone gift from founder, Betsy Mangone. We encourage members to join either as a Legacy Partner or contribute to the CPGR Endowment to keep CPGR strong for many years to come.

As always, our dedicated Board of Directors and volunteer committee members are hard at work all year long to continue to bring our members top rated speakers and the best information about planned giving topics.

Thank you for making 2017 a success and we look forward to an even better 2018. Thank you to our volunteers for your time, dedication and support of CPGR. And worth special mention, we have one of the best Executive Directors in Tina Drum, now going into her 17th year with CPGR. Thank you, Tina!!
