Congratulations to Jacquie Roach long time editor of our newsletter.  The CLA recently gave the chapter the Newsletter Award for the current year.   This is Jacquie's last year as Newletter Editor as she begins a well earned retirement from both the Neumann Chapter and her work as  a Reference Librarian.  Also congratulations to our retiring President Cathy Fennell who will be giving up the leadership of our chapter only to be tapped as the incoming President of the CLA.  We wish them both the very best.

We welcome Trish Spadaro  of Kennedy- Kenrick High School to the board as our Vice President.  She will be assisting Nancy Sommers from John Hallanan  who  is our new President. 

Finally thanks to all who helped make the Philadelphia Convention such a big success.  We are grateful for all the time people spent making favors, manning the registration booth and just showing the atendees that Philadelphia is truely the city of Brotherly Love.
