| PRSIDENT'S MESSAGE | |
As this year comes to a close, I wish to express my sincere gratitude to this association of escrow professionals and the allied industries that support our efforts. In the true spirit of “teamwork,” we have moved through this year and ended with spectacular results. We are moving into the New Year with renewed enthusiasm to create enhancements to this association that provides educational value to our members.Your executive board began last year in Palm Springs, with a painter’s canvas that contained a sketched picture, created by an artist representing my dream for the upcoming year. Your board was asked to work together as a team and complete the water color painting, each with their own skills. If you are ever in Glendale, I ask that you stop by my office and look at the masterpiece which was created. The painting is a representation to me of the awesome job performed by each and every one of your executive board members and state directors this year.
The myriad of accomplishments include: fiscal responsibility, increased membership, creation of a business plan that will incorporate the needs of the members, grassroots efforts in legislative matters, community service through our donations to Feed the Children, new marketing items to increase public awareness, involvement through AEA in the national arena, website enhancements, educational excellence at our annual conference, revisions of the Professional Designation Tests and the informative CEA News delivered on a timely basis. In summary, it has been a very rewarding year for the CEA membership at large. Please continue the spirit and drive into the New Year. Let us all dedicate our efforts to the new CEA Executive Board and State Directors for the year 2004. Sincerely, Carolyn Marcial, CSEO/CEI President 2003 |
