The Leadership Roadshow

Make plans today to join us on June 18 for a gathering of community leadership program directors, their staffers, board members, other volunteers. This will be a valuable opportunity to gather and share ideas on successful community leadership programs with peers from Ohio and the Great Lakes region. And, experience some great venues like the Governor’s Residence and the newly restored Page Hall, the home of the Glenn School of Public Affairs at The Ohio State University. A very affordable, valuable learning opportunity in a great community. We’ll see you in June!
