PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
What I want to offer you as your new president is a chance to allow yourself to shine. As you know me, I decided not to take advantage of using the “ready made” International theme. Your theme for the year is a combination of Teresa Henderson's, Virginia-West Virginia Division President’s theme,
C + B = A (Conceive + Believe = Achieve) combined with the International theme - Excellence in Action: Fundamentals of Excellence, with the accent on FUN. “F” for find your gift, “U” for use it, and “N” for never say never. Of course we will always have FUN when we attend our IAAP meetings and events, that is a given. However, when we use the gift that we have and find out how wonderful it feels everyone will benefit. So go ahead, never say, “I could never do that in a million years!” Just say yes – chair that committee, work on that project, and let’s have an extremely productive year!
Your 2008-2009 Tri-City Chapter
From Melody Day CPS/CAP & Linda Wells, Ways & Means Co-Chairs
Fundraising Reminder:
Donate your loose change at chapter meetings.
All monies will go into the Tri-City Chapter’s operating funds.
Thank you for your support.
IAAP President
Mary B. Schrum CPS

2008 MEMBER OF THE YEAR
Congratulations to Judith Proper, the 2008 Member of the Year!
She is a hard working and dedicated individual, with amazing skills.
Some of her fellow chapter members had this to say about her: “She is an IAAP ambassador, sharing information about Tri-City Chapter with a huge number of coworkers, encourages fellow members, supporting them as they grow in their professionalism.” “She is a hard worker and believes in the core values of our organization, and has contributed enormously to the Chapter, helping to coordinate special events, providing program ideas and securing speakers.” “Her hard work and dedication to the Tri-City chapter this year provided a model way to Move the chapter forward through professionalism, education and mentoring.” I personally have viewed her as an outstanding role model as I have started my administrative career.
I was truly honored and excited to present the award to Judith. Keep up the great work!
Thanks to all those members who submitted nominations
-Amber Cary, 2007 Member of the Year
After a lot of hard work, and a tough exam, Linda and Denise are our newest CPS! Great Job ladies
Congratulations to Hollie Ronkartz CAP, who was recently notified that she met the criteria to be recertified as a Certified Administrative Professional. Hollie, we are proud of you!
