PAST PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

I truly have enjoyed my years of involvement with the Chapter and it was an honor serving as the 2018-19 President. The networking opportunities, con- tacts, and friendships I have made over the years are truly priceless. These events would not be possible without the hard work and dedication of the Ex- ecutive Board and the Steering Committees and I have enjoyed working with them over the years. I would like to thank our Property Appraisers once again for your support and leadership and a special thank you to Past President Tracy Drake for your guidance throughout the year.

Katie C. Grasso, AAS,CFE

I have been involved with the Executive Board for eight years and have seen it change and evolve into what it is today. I am confident that success will continue because of the dedicated professionals we have in our Chapter. I am looking forward to one last year on the board and hope to see you at future Chapter events.

Respectfully,

Katie C. Grasso, AAS, CFE

FCIAAO Past President, 2018-2019

CHARITY RAFFLE - SUNCOAST CENTER, INC.

Continuing our effort to give back to the communities that host us for our conferences, this year we held a 50/50 charity raffle to benefit the Suncoast Center, Inc. . The Suncoast Center provides a com- prehensive range of evidence based programs that address emotional wellness, trauma services, and child advocacy to individuals and families throughout Pinellas County.

FCIAAO Executive Board Member Kenny Pennington, CFE, CBC along with volun- teers from Pinellas County and the FCIAAO Committees sold tickets throughout the conference. On the last day of the confer- ence we were proud to present the Suncoast Center, Inc. with a check for $786! We also collected toiletry items throughout the confer- ence from attendees for the Suncoast Center.
