The Senior Planet team in San Antonio met up for some holiday bowling fun! |
| Season's Greetings |
|
2022 has flown by in a whirlwind of activities, collaborations, new starts, and a few restarts. We hope you reflect and take a moment to celebrate the milestones and successes that you experienced along the way.
We would also like to thank you for the support you have given us to further the training efforts we are leading in San Antonio. As we take inventory of our incredible work, we should also find time to cherish one another and our families along the way.
Have an excellent holiday season,
