I would like to say thank you for an amazing team of contributors led by Jody who have made CIJ 2022 a stunning success. We first started planning and organising back in April of this year to ensure that we all had plenty of time to make our contributions the best that they could be.
My co host MissJane was so wonderful to work with and I thank her for all of her help and messages along the way.
I hope that you all enjoyed celebrating CIJ as much as we all enjoyed putting it together for you.

I echo Katrina's sentiments!

Christmas in July isn't something that "just happens."
The team begins communicating and planning months in advance.

Big Thank you to JoDee who leads us!
