Welcome to the first issue of the Grand Lake Chapter of CPCU Newsletter!
Our first meeting for 2014 was held on 02/13/14 with 35 members and 4 guests in attendance. We enjoyed a great lunch at Central Insurance Company and listened to a very informative presentation on updates to the Trusted Choice Project CAP. See the attachment for a .pdf version of the PowerPoint presentation.

32 responded to the good works project question:
As our Officers and Board of Directors sift through the responses for future planning, we will be looking for volunteers to take charge and chair a Good Works committee. Please thoughtfully consider serving in this way when you receive a request for volunteers.
Don’t hesitate to email me any other suggestions you might have. I have already received a few emails and phone calls with excellent suggestions.
- Grand Lake Chapter of CPCU has our own website! Click on https://grandlake.cpcusociety.org/ to see the new site! Thanks to Mary Jo Maag of T&E for getting it set up on the new Drupal platform. We have a long way to go, but hopefully, soon you will more information that will be helpful to you. The photo on the right under Welcome to Our Chapter was loaded by National Headquarters and doesn’t really represent Grand Lake. I would love to see a new photo that better reveals who we are. If you have a suggestion, send me a photo for consideration.
