Wrapping up an event

Your final words wrapping up an event are the
last chance you have to make an impression on
our members. Take some time during the event
to consider what you will say and which parts of
the event you will mention as your highlights/take
home messages. Be sure to thank the presenter,
the members for attending and anyone else who
helped make the event a success.
