The gathering for the APTA Montana’s winter conference, albeit cold in temperature, was warm and energizing while together. The knowledge, fun, and passion that was shared by all participants was inspiring to witness. As membership director, I find it invigorating to attend these conferences and enjoy meeting new members every time.

During this meeting I looked at our mission, vision, values, and core focus. When I stepped back and thought about what this means to our members and future members, I discovered the importance of community and gathering. We have so many new PT’s moving into our communities as well as many native Montana’s that love to enjoy what the Big Sky has to offer.

CALL TO ACTION.  I need community ambassadors from all over Montana to join me to lead local PT gatherings or what we are calling a PT Social throughout 2023. There are no parameters or forced time commitment. You could do a hike, journal club, book club, coffee social, and many more activities. If you already have a local, regular, meet ups please contact us by replying to this email. I am very excited to interact and brainstorm with all of you!

Your Membership Director, Nicole Macaluso

Inspiring collaboration, fostering success!
