President’s Message
I hope everyone enjoyed a happy Christmas season
with loved ones and now look forward to a wonderful New Year! Don’t forget to submit your volunteer
hours and your steps toward our Walks-A Million
program.
We have a slate of officers, approved at the December
Dana Wasser
meeting: Pres – Linda Briggs (also to serve as district
president), V Pres – Dana Wasser, 2nd V Pres – Gail Krohn, and continuing
in office: Sec – Sue Croom and Treas – Mary Beth McDuff. We will be in
for a great year!
Areas to focus on this winter:
• Let incoming president know if you would like to serve on committees
either as chair or a member…
• Elect delegates to the state convention, March 25-27, in Houston…I have
reserved 5 rooms; let me know if you would like to attend…
• Contact past retirees…and make them aware of how important TRTA is to
all of us…
