July Changes in the WTCGP Staff

Bidding Farewell to Victoria...

In July, the WTCGP reluctantly bid farewell to one of our hardest-working employees, Victoria Delvizis, business development and events coordinator. Victoria was key in coordinating all aspects of the forty-plus events we do each year, in addition to her

efforts to strengthen the WTCGP Affinity relationships, find sponsors and provide administrative support to the Board of Directors.

Client companies, overseas representatives, suppliers and her fellow employees alike will miss Victoria’s direct and efficient manner of dealing with problems and making things go smoothly. Victoria and her husband, Peter, are moving to northern New Jersey to be closer to his congregation at the Holy Trinity Church in Westfield, New Jersey.

We’ll miss Victoria’s sense of humor and fun, but feel thankful for having had the opportunity of working with her. Great luck to you, Victoria and Peter!
