PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Hello there! I would like to thank everyone again who attended our Annual Conference last week in Orlando. The hard work of our steering committees and our board members paid off once again. I think every president in their post conference message, and I said it last year and I am saying it again, “The Annual Conference would not be the success it is without the hard work of our steering committees and board members.” We hope to continue our growth with our ever increasing attendance the last two years.

CHRIS MITTS PPS, CFE

PS: The top ten list is my personal favorite of all time with 5 honorable mentions. Feel free to disagree! My time as president was one of the best things I have done in my life and I look forward to President Kevin Hayes taking the reigns and going forward with what we have done. IAAO will host its 90th annual conference, August 25th to the 28th in Denver Colorado. I highly recommend all those who can attend, go to the international conference. As this is my last message, I will keep it kind of short. I am proud of the work that was done this year by our board. The Website upgrades and the face lift this very newsletter got were on my list of things to do. I hope you all filled out the conference survey last week. We take those suggestions seriously and have already thought of ways of improvement for 2025. Finally, TPP is our next scheduled event being held at the Embassy Suites in Kissimmee December 11th thru the 13th. More updates to follow.

Thank you, Christopher D Mitts, PPS, CFE FCIAAO 2023-2024 Chapter President
