Spring has finally sprung!

I want to wish all of you the best of luck with your spring seasons and the close of the school year which is right around the corner.

It seems like yesterday that we were all down the Cape celebrating our profession. Kudos to the Executive Board for putting together such a truly wonderful conference experience.

I hope this summer affords you the opportunity to relax, reflect, rejuvenate and to spend time with loved ones. As we all know the job can become all encompassing. Taking the time to re-establish your priorities and to actually take care of yourselves will not only allow you to be better at your job but more importantly strengthen your own well-bring.

As you know I am completing my term as your executive director. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to all of the wonderful people I have had the opportunity to work with over my tenure. It has been a blessing to have been part of such a dedicated and passionate association of professionals. I wish Ann Trytko the best of luck as she takes the reins and continues to move the association forward. You are in excellent hands!

With Appreciation and Respect,

Francis Whitten III, CMAA

Dear MSSADA Membership,

As we approach the end of another successful year, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to all of you for your unwavering dedication and support. It's because of your commitment to our organization that we have accomplished so much over the past year, and I truly believe that the best is yet to come.

I would also like to take a moment to recognize Fran Whitten, whose many years of service and leadership have been instrumental in our success. We are grateful for all that he has done and wish him all the best in his future endeavors.

As we move through the spring season and summer vacation, I hope that each and every one of you will take the time to relax, recharge, and come back ready to embrace new challenges and opportunities. May you all have a wonderful time with family and friends, and may the coming months be filled with joy, peace, and prosperity.

Thank you, once again, for your continued support.

Warm regards,

Matthew Trahan, CMAA

President
