Everyone in the MPA community is an important part of the marketing and institutional advancement initiative. She's looking forward to working with all of you.
Thank you to everyone who attended the 5th Annual MPA Golf Outing at Hillcrest Golf Club on May 12th. The event was a huge success and we could not have done it without you! The 69 golfers who played in the tournament included MPA parents, grandparents, alumni, staff and sponsors. Also a special thank you to all of our tournament sponsors--your support makes this event possible. All proceeds from the golf tournament will go to the 2007-2008 MPA Annual Fund.
