PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE (CONTINUED)

being able to get more members involved and at the same time, make executive board members more accessible to the membership. The TPP Workshop and Seminar was held the week of December 9 th and we had 22 people attend the pre-conference USPAP class and 77 people attended the conference. It was a very good turn-out for both events and we received very positive feedback. We are now working toward the presentation of our Annual Conference to be held April 29 - May 1, 2020 at the beautiful Hilton Fort Lauderdale Marina. Pre-conference education will be April 27 – 29 and will include IAAO Course 851 (RES Case Study Review Workshop) and IAAO 158 (Highest and Best Use). The president of IAAO, Amy Rasmussen, RES, AAS, will be joining us and taking part in our program. We are very excited to have Amy here with us for our conference this spring. We will be raising moneys for a local charity again this year, The Pantry of Broward, Inc. This organization serves seniors on low, fixed incomes and grandparents raising their grandchildren throughout Broward County. Please check out their web site https://www.thepantryofbroward.org/what-we-do/ .

As we begin this new decade, I look forward with great anticipation to the growth and expansion of our Florida Chapter. It is an exciting time to be part of our great organization.

Pat Alesandrini, CAE, RES President
