Hi everyone,

It's Community Manager Appreciation Day (CMAD), and I can't think of a better reason to take a moment to celebrate the amazing people who keep our Virtual Communities thriving.

Our community managers are the heart and soul of these spaces. They're the ones sparking meaningful conversations, fostering connections, and making sure every member feels supported and valued. Whether they're helping members navigate challenges, encouraging collaboration, or simply creating a welcoming space, they're making a real difference every day.

Let's take a moment to show our appreciation for everything they do. Send a note, share a kind word, or just let them know how much their hard work means to you and the members they serve.

To our community managers: You are the glue that holds it all together, and we're so lucky to have you. Thank you for everything you do to make our communities a place where people can connect, grow, and thrive.

Here's to you-today and every day! 🎉 @Stephanie Weiner, @Brandy Cooper, @Christin Probst, @Richard Peng, @Monique Mauge, @Brandon Vaughan, @Maria Jose Araya, @Heather Grimm, @Katrice Cain, @Abbie Gately, @Valerie Dandar, @Janet Stiles, @Irena Tartakovsky, @Sabrina Gentzler, @Aneesah Griffith, @Mary Halicki, @Kelly Stazyk, @Emily Outtarac, @Brandon Hunter, @Affrille Degoma, @DaShia Davis, @Kimberly Bellamy, @Molly Devine, @Vanessa Mendoza, @Nova Robinson, @Brian Lehman, @Stephen Barry, @Matthew Baker, @Erin Horan, @Heather Sacks, @Keith Krosinsky, @Helen Gineris, @Shawn Rosen-Holtzman, @Ethan Kendrick, @Michelle Oliva, @Kenyetta Wood, @Brandy King, @Alecia Bradford, @Melanie Whall, @Elizabeth Torres, @Madalyn Sistak, @Stacey Winningham, @Virginia Bush, @Jonathan O'Loughlin, @Christine Smith, @Kaitlyn Leaf, @Phyllis Dean, @Julie Gilbert, @Alexis Ruffin, @Tierra Johnson, @Alexandria Middleton, @Meaghan Quinn, @Dallas Peoples, @Emma Nicholas, @Rajaa Ismail, @Caroline Healey, @Benita Kornegay-Henry, @Katina Beale, @Angela Blood, @Clarence Fluker, @Ana Henriquez, @William Mallon, @Michelle Weston, @Philip Alberti, @Cecilia Barry, @Eric Weissman, @Christopher Miller, @Jeffrey Kaminski, @Toni Gallo, @Celeste Gray, @Pixie Adams, @Natalya Cox, @Mallory Lee, @Diana Lautenberger

Thank you so much to @Aneesah Griffith for your incredible dedication and countless hours of hard work in formalizing and organizing SPACE and its national board. Your efforts with STAFF TRACK and building the community have been invaluable, and we couldn't have done it without you.
