Due to the COVID-19 outbreak and with most of NMCC's classes going remote, all remaining meetings and events for this semester are cancelled.
Should things return to normalcy, we will announce any events and meetings here.

I have just received notification that due to the COVID-19 issue, the Micmac event for Saturday March 14, 2020, has been cancelled. It is rescheduled for April 11, 2020.
PTK will NOT be participating for that date as I will not be in town that weekend. If someone wishes to take charge of the event that day, please contact me ASAP so I can let Jacob at Micmac know - Allison

All chapter officer positions will be open for voting for the 2020-2021 school year as all of the current officers are graduating in May.
If you would like to be considered for one of the positions (and I encourage this as it looks fantastic on a resume!), please email Eric Pelkey with your position interest and a mini-bio by Friday March 20, 2020.
Voting will start at Wednesday April 1, 2020, and close on Friday April 17, 2020, in order to make a smooth transition of positions prior to the end of this term.

Just a reminder:
If you are graduating in May and have done at least 4 volunteer events, please see Eric Pelkey to order your regalia at no cost. The deadline is now March 20, 2020, to get it in time for graduation May 2nd.
