This meeting will be used to finalize the details for the IPA Blackhawk Region Student Leadership and Awards Breakfast scheduled for 4/16/2027.

This is our annual event where we recognize students in the highest grade levels across our school buildings in the region for demonstrating leadership and citizenship in their respective school communities. We also take this time to present the IPA awards to our local leaders for the year. =================== Doors open at 8:00 AM. The program will start at 8:30 with a breakfast buffet. Keynote speaker at 9:15. Awards presentation following. Events end around 11:00 AM.

This evening is in honor of our local Administrative Assistants throughout the region. We encourage our local administrators to treat their secretaries to an evening at Old Oak Winery, complete with food, spirits, fellowship, fun, and door prizes, as a token of our appreciation for the work they do daily for everyone in our buildings. ** More specifics will be emailed to region building administrators in early 2027. We will be using the IPA online payment system this year, so that will be new.**

We aim to host a family-friendly end-of-the-year social, so we are considering a River Bandits or Steamwheelers game during the first week of May. More details will be shared once we get one finalized. We are hoping this idea will increase membership participation as we close out the year.

This is our final meeting, which will serve as the annual board meeting. We will conduct the necessary elections and update and review the bylaws and goals. Also, begin planning for the 2027-2028 school year.
