President's Report
Happy New Year to all!
2018 was a great year. We were able to close out the year with our holiday party at Potek Winery. The spaghetti dinner was a hit. Many members went home with a raffle prize and the Branch was able to donate a couple boxes of toys to Toys-for-Tots. Thank you all who contributed!
We are kicking off the year with some great meetings. First up we will be partnering with the Cental Coast ACEC chapter for our January meeting. I am excited for the opportunity to network with ACEC's membership and hope we can continue to partner with other professional organizations throughout this coming year.
If anyone has any ideas for upcoming meetings, community service events, or professional development events our Board would love to hear them.
I look forward to sharing 2019 with all of our local members!

Santa Barbara/Ventura Branch President
