The best time of the year for HAPSters has officially begun!

While most of us made our way to Kansas City, our illustrious HAPS leadership gathered for dinner before a Saturday filled with Board of Directors and Steering Committee meetings. We’re so thankful for all of the hard work they put into HAPS!
