We would encourage and welcome you to join our chapter.  We usually meet about six times a year, including at least one meeting in the Upstate (Greenville) and one in the Low Country (Charleston) with the balance of meetings held in Columbia.  We have outstanding speakers who present a number of very interesting and relevant topics.  The networking with fellow administrators and the exchanging of ideas with each other are valuable parts of what our organization is about.
