PRESIDENT'S LETTER
From the President
by Mark Gilliland

Congratulations to all the tax guys on the completion of another busy season.  I hope your tax season was a successful one. 
 
The Scholarship Committee interviewed student’s at WT two weeks ago to determine the winners of the Haggard and Panhandle Scholarships for the 2010-2011 school year.  The winners will be announced at WTAMU’s annual awards reception on April 28.  Thanks to Jeff Fairchild, Cindy Garner, and Danny Bishop for serving on this Committee.  And a special thanks to Darlene Pulliam who organized the interviews, screened the candidates, and gave us a tour of the accounting department. 
 
Cory Joiner, President-Elect (and soon to be president) is looking for CPAs interested serving as an Officer of the Chapter or as a Committee Chair.  We are also looking for members who would like to serve on a Committee.  Please contact Cory, Jobie, or me if you can serve.   
 
As I prepare to hand the gavel to Cory, I want to take a moment to thank everyone who served on a Committee, as a Committee Chair, Officer, or Board Member.  And a special thanks to Jobie who keeps the Chapter running smoothly and somehow managed to keep me on task.
 
Take care,
Mark Gilliland

Hey All,

It is hard to believe another fiscal year for the Panhandle Chapter is coming to a close.

If you have not received a directory, please contact me at panchap.cpas@wildblue.net. They were mailed in December, and I am hoping everyone has received a copy.

And, please send updates to your contact information via email with the SUBJECT: MEMBER UPDATE. I will use these updates in the next printed directory.

Please register, TODAY, for the Accounting and Auditing Update. May tends to be a very busy month, so early registration is greatly appreciated. Use this link to the registration form or the one posted below in this newsletter. Print, complete and mail with a check today!

The Board of Directors is always looking for volunteers on the Board itself or as a Committee Member or Chair. If you are interested, please contact the Chapter Office at panchap.cpas@wildblue.net.

Enjoy your summer, and I will see most of you at the Tax Institute in August.
