| President's Letter |
Already we’re at the fifth month of the year, or
eleventh month if you have a fiscal year that ends
in June. Between state, federal and calendar years
I have trouble keeping any of it straight. The one
item this month I never have trouble remembering
is the holiday at the end of the month. While
Memorial Day is a great time for cook outs and family get-
togethers, ever since 9-11 and the aftermath a lot of us have
clearer memories and better understanding of all of those men
and women that have gone before us wearing our country’s
uniform and that made unbelievable sacrifices on our behalf.
Please keep them in your thoughts.
For education this month is an audio conference on the subject of
ethics. This will be the last session of what was a very successful
program year. I hope you were able to attend at least one of our
sessions and we hope to see you at our training sessions starting
in September.
In July is the annual AGA Professional Developmental Conference
in San Diego. This will take place from July 29 to August 1 at the
San Diego Marriott Hotel & Marina. With the theme “Training to
Solve Today’s Fiscal Challenges” and offering 25 CPE hours, the
PDC promises to be an excellent learning and networking
opportunity for government financial managers and accountability
professionals. If this session is close to the one in Atlanta last year
it should be great.
Consider this your reminder! Sunday May 13th is Mother’s Day.
Again, until next month, thanks for your help and support.
