Dear ,
We're excited to start a new fiscal year with the new Board. Election results were announced at the May Chapter Meeting. Johns Simons is now the 1st Vice President with Denise LeClaire as 2nd Vice President. Ron Thompson is Secretary and Nic Harrison is Treasurer. Aaron Carpenter, Jon Chandler, Tim Cox, Andy Deas, and Erica Smith are directors. We would especially like to thank our outgoing officers - Gail Ricketts as President, Jeff Trogan as 1st Vice President, and Brian Irish as Treasurer. Their time and dedication is very much appreciated. As we begin the new year, by mid-July we will have our chapter meetings for the upcoming year posted. We are also planning the membership appreciation event. On October 22nd we will have our combined Audit and Security Conference with the ISSA and IIA - you can already register for this event. With everything going on, we are always interested in additional volunteers to help with different aspects of events, especially the October Conference. Please visit the chapter's Volunteer Page for contact information.
