Local chapter update: Relive the ACDIS 2019 chapter fun

June 6, 2019

CDI Strategies - Volume 13, Issue 25

Day 2 of the ACDIS conference is always state pride day, on which chapter leaders from all over the country are encouraged to decorate tables and host state-specific lunchtime gatherings. This year, as in years’ past, the volunteer leaders went all out. From Florida’s inflatable palm trees and alligator, to Washington’s mountain scape and yeti, to Massachusetts’ beach balls and inflatable shark, there was state pride displayed from coast to coast.

As the ACDIS team reviewed the photos captured by our onsite photographer, we couldn’t help but share a few of our favorites. We think you’ll love reliving the ACDIS fun with us through the video below.

Enjoy!
