The Burn Book would simply say: “GDPA knows how to network.” 💗

Our Spring Networking Event took members and guests to Mean Girls The Musical in Sandy Springs for a night of mingling before the show.

It was fun, pink, and exactly the kind of member moment we love to see outside of clinic and conference rooms.
