President’s Letter

Spring has come and gone and along with it another “Tax Season” for those of us in public practice and related occupations.  In March, we had a very nice break from taxes with our Annual Charity Dinner which raised funds for two charitable causes - The American Cancer Society Relay for Life and the Financial Literacy Book Club.  See the chairpersons’ review of these events in this newsletter.  Thanks to all that participated and to Brenda Roth and Tina Wleczyk for their work in organizing these events.

Traditionally, May 31 would mark a change in officers for the Victoria Chapter of TSCPA.  However, this year the officers will remain basically the same except for the position of treasurer.

The 2011/2012 officers, who were elected in December, 2010 are:

 Lynn Miori   President
 Chris Janecek   President-Elect
 Brenda Roth   President-Elect Nominee
 Diane Kliem   Treasurer

Our next meeting will be May 17, 2011 at the Victoria Country Club.  We will be presenting the Accounting Excellence Award at this meeting- so we hope to have a good turnout.  Please make your plans to attend.  More information and R.S.V.P. details are in this newsletter.

I attended the TSCPA Executive Board meeting this past weekend and have attached a copy of a letter written to Speaker John Boehner from the TSCPA. I know that many of you will be closely watching this issue.  

See you at our May meeting.

Lynn M. Miori, CPA-PFS, CFP®
President

Financial Literacy Book Club
In March, more than 40 members and guests attended our annual Charity Dinner at Victoria Country Club. This year our chapter has chosen once again sponsor a team for the Victoria County Relay For Life.

Presenting information at the meeting was Ceci Oldmixon with Victoria County Relay for Life, and Tina Wleczyk, TSCPA Number Crunchers team captain.  See Tina’s comments below.

A new program sponsored this year is an elementary school Financial Literacy Book Club.  During the meeting, F.W. Gross Elementary Principal Tammy Sestak spoke about how the book club utilizes books provided by our chapter to get kids involved in the learning the skills necessary to grow up financially savvy.

American Cancer Society - Relay For Life®

The Relay for Life was held at Coleto Creek Reservoir on April 29th at 6pm through April 30th at 6am. The TSCPA Number Crunchers had 21 team members participate in the walk. The weather was beautiful, the entertainment was wonderful, and the members had a great time raising money for the Cure. 

The final numbers have not been posted as of yet, but TSCPA Number Crunchers raised over $3,000 for the American Cancer Society.

If you are interested in having a lot of fun and raising funds for a worthy cause mark your calendars for the last weekend in April 2012 and come join the team next year.
