Happy October!  Its official – FALL is here.  We hope you have welcomed it with a Pumpkin Spice Latte and a pumpkin scone….we are loving all things pumpkin right now!

We are working on PULSE and are asking ALL our Retail Members to take a super quick Survey.  The more PPP Retail Members that participate – the more valuable the data is, so please take a moment to complete it.  It is only ten questions and that Pumpkin Spice Latte will still be warm when you are done.

Take our Fall 2015 Survey:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/9L3VRFP

After you finish our Fall Survey, be sure to take a moment to enter our contest for a trip to Las Vegas.

Our first two winners are:

Serita Selman, Gift Shop Manager at Stillwater Medical Center Gift Shop in Stillwater, OK.

Sandy Metzger, Gift Shop Manager, St. Elizabeth Medical Center Gift Shop, Edgewood, KY

Congratulations, Serita and Sandy!
