Many members commented that "The Ridges" lodge on Lake Chatuge in north Georgia was one of the loveliest locations ever for the annual meeting. Each morning, we were treated to a continental breakfast on the patio overlooking this view of the lake and surrounding mountains.

Despite being busy keeping the meetings on schedule, Sally Swain took time for her granddaughter Rachel.
