President's Message

Wendy ChildressWhat you think is important and we want to know! Here on the Southern Chapter website you will see (below) a link marked "Tell Us What You Think." This is your chance to share your thoughts, ideas, issues, concepts and opinions with your leadership team. There will be monthly questions posted to gather your input on specific topics and at any time you can post whatever thoughts or questions are on your mind. All input is sent without sender information attached, so will be delivered anonymously. However, if you would like us to contact you, leave your contact information and we will get back to you. I encourage you to use this most helpful tool. It is a great way for you and your leadership team to communicate with each other. The most important and valuable part of Southern Chapter is the members.

Raise your hands and let your southern hospitality show. We are seeking as many members as we can from each state to serve as Ambassadors. Who would like to help gather information on floral events or related experiences, personal or professional, to share with the members through our newsletter and other channels of communication? If you would like to be a part of sharing an expanding our communication with AIFD, CFD and non-members, please contact: Kevin Coble AIFD at kcobleelefleur@aol.com.
