Hello Gappers, Alumni and Friends,
We have an exciting gapper social event that we would like to tell you about.  Sunday April 15th mygapyear will be hosting a movie day!  We will be featuring the Happy Movie which takes its audience on a journey around the world to explore what makes people truly happy and how we can each pursue more fulfilling, healthier and happier lives. Check out the linkwww.thehappymove.com where you can view a short trailor and learn more about the movie.
This will be a great opportunity to get together to both reflect upon and discuss what happiness means to us, as well as to connect with fellow gappers (past and present) to share some laughsand good conversation. We are excited as we continue to build our gapper community and truly hope each of you can join us for this fun filled afternoon!!
