The 2026–2027 Board Retreat is in the books! ☑️

Our Board of Directors came together at last weekend for an afternoon of brainstorming, connection, and exciting new ideas for the year ahead.

Thank you to redhorsebnb for welcoming us into your space with such hospitality, and to berncounty for graciously sponsoring our Retreat.

We had the chance to hear directly from the County during our Retreat, with remarks centered around one theme: "Let's ENGAGE together, for the Albuquerque - Bernalillo County we are proud to live in, work in and stay in!"

👀 Look out for a chance to meet this year's Board at an upcoming Live After 5, later this month.

Here's to a great year ahead! 🙌
