If you never attended a PPVA meeting, I suggest you check it out!!  These meetings are awesome!!  I went to the April and May meetings, and I’m so impressed.   This group is doing some really cool things!

Each meeting seems to have an agenda, and believe it or not, they really seem to stick to what they’ve got on the menu for the evening.   They plan the topics, and have someone capable and ready to do the presentation.  There is much in the way of questioning, and comments.   And lots in the way of group conversation with everyone sharing expertise, ideas, techniques and even problems.

This is a group of talented professionals, who actually compete with one another on some levels, sharing the things that make each one great.   There are no egos here….just one pro trying to help another!

 Although I’m not a videographer, I have learned a lot of neat things by just going to two meetings.  And I just love it.  These meetings are fun, and friendly, and informative.   The members are super people who love their work and love to talk about it.    

And, oh!  not to forget that they enter their best into an annual competition, judged by a panel of non-members.  They even have an annual picnic and a Holiday dinner.   Like I said……..it’s fun!

New faces are more than welcome at each meeting, and not left to feel like onlookers or outsiders.  They are truly WELCOME.  Stop by for the next meeting and see for yourself.  Grab a little something to eat, relax, and chat with some people who have the same interests and goals as you.   Believe me, it’s time well spent with a group of really nice people. 

Meetings:  3^rd Monday of every month – 7:00 (come about ½ hour early though) – Denny’s Restaurant Monroeville (private room in the back)
