MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Welcome to 2008.

We have some exciting events planned for the next few months and I hope that all of you can attend at least a few of them. 

Our next meeting will provide us with some much needed updates.  In February, we have the joint social with the Young Agents.  Then, the IIATC Tradefest is February 12.  I know that some of you are planning on attending that industry function.  Our CE credit class for March is in the works and we should have registration forms for you soon.   Please tell your other insurance associates about it.  We hope to have an even better turnout this year than last.

Of course, the Annual Golf Tournament is planned for April 21.  I hope many of you can participate.  We are including registration forms in the Chaptergram.  As usual, we need sponsors and door prize donations.  The proceeds from our golf tournament fund our scholarship program.  Please check with your companies to see if they can contribute as a sponsor, or golfer, or door prize contributor.  With your help we can have another successful tournament this year.    

And, of course, don’t forget our one-hour CE classes before each luncheon. 

I encourage all of you to become as active in our local chapter as you can be.  You will find that you will reap benefits from the association with other professionals in our area.

The Nominating Committee is forming to identify the chapter leaders for the next year.  Please let any of the officers know if you will be available to serve as an officer, director, or committee chair (or member) for the 2008/09 year.

I look forward to seeing you all at the January meeting.   With your continued help, we can have an impact on our industry, enhancing it’s professionalism through education.  We are continuing to make major strides towards our goal for this year. I really appreciate your hard work. 

Rebecca Belardi, CPCU

 Social with Young Agents
Our annual Social has been tentatively set for Tuesday, February 5, 2008, 5:30 PM – 7:00 PM. We will be inviting the “Young Agents” of the Independent Insurance Agents of Tarrant County to join us for Happy Hour at Joe T. Garcia’s. The plan is to provide appetizers and have beer & margaritas available. We will probably provide drink tickets for one or two drinks with a cash bar available for additional purchases.

This Social will be an excellent opportunity to network with other members of the insurance industry to promote CPCU studies and the Fort Worth Chapter of CPCU. It will be important to know how many to expect for budgeting purposes, etc. I will need to provide Joe T’s a firm count prior to the event. Please confirm your attendance to me no later than our January 29,2008 meeting. You can email me at my office: mary@parksgroup.com or call me at 817-608-0150.

Mary Gunn, Membership Chairman
 Lena Pope receives a Little help from CPCUs!

 The Fort Worth Chapter of CPCU has collected donations to create Care Packs for Kids for the Lena Pope home. Most children coming into foster care have nothing with them but the clothes on their backs when they arrive at the home. Care Packs for Kids is a program that allows associations to use their time and resources to put together back packs and/or duffle bags filled with necessity items for the children.

Care Packs for Kids benefits children from ages birth to 18, as well as
children leaving foster care and going on to college.
Through the
generosity of our members, the Fort Worth chapter provided 20 duffle
bags filled with hygiene essentials, journal, and hat and gloves.
