Recognizing Our Volunteers
Thank You!
We depend on our member volunteers to carry out the mission and work of IUGA. As we near the end of the year, we want to recognize and thank a number of members who have helped shape IUGA into the great organization that it is!
First, we would like to recognize two board members who are rotating off the board at the end of December. These valued members of our IUGA family have provided insight, encouragement, support, guidance, and countless hours of volunteer service to IUGA.
