SPRING MEETING

 

Hello again from your Unit chair. Our upcoming meeting will be held at the McCann Business & Technical school in Pottsville,Pa. Our unit geographic area takes in five counties thus I am trying to move the meetings around so we can reach more of our members and increase exposure to new members.

  Please come out members and non-members to support your profession. Many opportunities exist to get involved. Being at a school that provides Massage Therapy education, you will get to meet recent and soon to graduate massage therapy students. Our profession is growing and evolving quickly. Come and network and grow with it.
