      CONGRATULATING
          Sandy Gruber
      on her retirement!
January 2020

 

The RMA Wisconsin Chapter would like to announce the retirement of Sandy Gruber as our chapter administrator.  Sandy has served our chapter for 20 years and has been a key resource for our board of directors and members over the years.  Sandy’s contributions have been instrumental in the success of the chapter.  We wish Sandy all the best in her retirement!!

 

Sandy’s retirement has led to the hiring of Erica Deren as our new chapter administrator.  Erica brings a great deal of experience, enthusiasm and ideas to assist our chapter.  We are excited to have Erica as a part of the team and welcome her as she began her responsibilities in early December.

 

The transition has led to a new mailing address for the chapter.  Correspondence for the RMA Wisconsin Chapter should be sent to:
