Arizona Society of Practicing Accountants (ASPA) celebrates its 35th Anniversary this year. We had a great kick off at our Annual Meeting and Summer Seminar June 24-25 at Little America in Flagstaff.
At the Friday night banquet, NSA president, Donny Woods installed the new state officers and Jack Schabow, one of the first 12 (dubbed the Daring Dozen in the history booklet we received), shared some highlights of the past 35 years.
There was a Friday afternoon get-away for member guests at the Lowell Observatory. Reports are that it was fun and a great place to bring family. A few attendees walked away with some raffle and game prizes, but it was not all fun and games.
Steve Siegel, was the presenter for 12 cpe hours on 1041s, 706s and 709s, followed by Donny Woods, who presented Cash Flow Statements. I know I will use the worksheet he showed us when I do my next cash flow statement! We ended our seminar with information on being a Campaign Treasurer, presented by our own members Walter Dudley and Jeffrey Hill. Although it was the last day, there was lots of interaction and lively discussion.
For those of you who did not attend, you missed a great seminar, good company, good food, and fun. The picture albums brought smiles and laughs to our faces as we looked members pictures from past events - remember bell bottoms, long hair & sideburns, just to mention a few. Jack Schabow and Joan Parker did a great job putting together a written history that and deserve much thanks.
Now it is off to the NSA Annual Convention. Hope to see you in Alaska.
