President’s Letter November 2011

A lot has happened since my last president’s message. First, our 20th Anniversary Celebration was a success. We all had a chance to socialize not only with supporters and board members, but also with current and past scholarship recipients. Dr. Javier Lopez, co-chair of our Scholarship Alumni Program and a former scholarship recipient, spoke about what the scholarship meant to him. The Richard A. Sadow Award was presented to Judge Donna S. Remsnyder. I would like to thank both Dr. Lopez and Judge Remsnyder for the wonderful presentations they both made during the evening. I also would like to thank AnnaMarie Kim for assisting in the planning of this special evening and for all she does in arranging our meetings in Orlando.

The celebration continued Monday morning during our board meeting and presentation during the opening session of the workers’ compensation convention. My thanks to all.

Since the convention many fund-raising events took place with all having fun and helping the kids. These events included the Treasure Coast Division’s Casino Night chaired by Melanie Jacobson and South Florida’s annual David H. Levine Memorial Golf & Tennis Classic chaired by Darcy Williams.

Don’t forget that our scholarship application deadline is February 28, 2012.

Please note that our next board meeting is set for December 9 in Orlando, and everyone is encouraged to come.  I am keeping this short so to be able to add many photographs. Remember a picture can replace many words.
