Survey Says
Please keep an eye out for our “post meeting”
opinion surveys following our Chapter meetings
and special events. Each year the Ontario
Chapter is privileged to host many fine speakers
and we would like to recognize them for their
efforts. Following each meeting attendees will
receive a very short survey asking to rate the
speaker. Responding gives you a chance to win a
$25 gift card!
At the end of the year we will tally the
results and present one of them with an award as
“Speaker of the Year.
