Hello, 

 

First and foremost, Thank You for a Memorable 2024 Hall of Fame Gala!

We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who attended the 2024 Hall of Fame Gala on October 11. Your presence made the evening truly special.

 

As we look ahead to an amazing 2025, we’re excited to share that our board of trustees met in September to chart the course for the future. We are diligently working to incorporate the valuable insights from that retreat into ITC’s plan for 2025. Stay tuned, as we will be sharing out details of all that is to come in 2025 soon! Together, we are poised for a year of innovation and growth.
