Letter from the Editor Dear valued reader, When the year winds down, the workload heats up. From party planning and late nights at the office to finding time to winterize your home—there’s a lot to do and not much light left in the day to do it. If one of your traditions involves trimming the tree, think about Barb Farrior. She never imagined the simple decision to keep a lighted Christmas tree on her porch for an entire year would change the marks on her annual performance review. Then, keep the real-life tips of Linda Gaynor and Cynthia McComsey in mind when it’s time to plan the holiday parties at work. These two event planners know a thing or two about how to have a highbrow corporate party on any budget. Lastly, when you head home after a long day, it’s time to kick off your shoes and just relax. Follow a few guidelines from Tim Singleton and Mark Rohrer. Their sound tips will ensure your toes will stay warm. When their stories inspire you into action, make sure to flip to the chamber directory. Event planners, home improvement specialists and many more businesses are all just a mouse click away. Go on. Get connected. Kindest regards, Jasmine Grimm Editor-in-chief, Connections 2 | Connections | December 2008 http://www.nxtbookmedia.com http://www.lancasterchamber.com
