President's Message

It is my pleasure to serve the members of DADOA as President again in 2008.  A talented team of volunteers will help run the organization and I would like to take this opportunity to introduce those committee chairs and co-chars.  Sandi Rupprecht and Libby Ecord will be putting together speakers and topics for our upcoming seminar.  Dan Thomas and Robert Caldwell have the task of securing our luncheon speakers.  Please make them aware of your ideas on what topics you may want to hear presented this year.  Cori Peth and Shelley McEachern are returning for another year of providing you with a superior luncheon experience at Maggiano’s.  As always, let them know of any concerns you may have during a luncheon.  Colleen Booker will also maintain our database of membership for another year.  She wants to hear about any changes you may have, especially to email addresses so that there are no interruptions with our communications.  Mary Geder, David Peterson, Lynn Schardein and Chris Anderson will be working together to recharge our on-line newsletter.  They would welcome your ideas and suggestions.  Also, keep them in mind for special announcements to the membership, i.e. your promotion or change in job.  Jessica Lambuth will be digitally recording our events so when you see her, please give her a big smile.  Sharon Siemer and Carla Dickenson are joining forces to come up with some enticing special events.  Linda Osminer and Julia George work together on the Employment Committee.  You can view the most recent updates to the Job Bank at our website under the Members Area.  Linda also works on keeping our website up to date. 

I am so grateful for the volunteers returning from last year and also our new volunteers.  Membership input is crucial so I encourage you all to seek out any member of the Board or committee chair at the next luncheon, introduce yourself and let them know your thoughts on how DADOA can help you in 2008. 

Please look for announcements of upcoming events on this site.   It will be an exciting year!
