website and subsequent newsletters for updates. To help us “stay the course”, your execu- tive board met via the web on June 6, and will meet in person Saturday August 2 in Miami for a full day of planning and strat- egy meetings to ensure the continued suc- cess and viability of the chapter. Every Executive Board meeting is open to regu- lar voting members, but in case you can’t make it, please send me your thoughts and observations on how we can improve. Best wishes to each of your offices on a successful Preliminary Roll submission.

Sincerely,

Neil “Nick” Nikkinen, AAS, CFE FCIAAO President
