President's Report

Greetings NACE Alamo Chapter members,

I would like to take this opportunity to “Thank You” on behalf of our Board of the Alamo Chapter for your continued membership and support.  As we give Thanks, I would also like to include the “State of NACE” for you of where we have been, as well as, where we are going. 

Your NACE Board is up to great ideas and challenges as we begin our new year for our Chapter!  We currently continue to grow strong with 80+ members.  Your membership and attendance is invaluable not only to our industry, but to your networking possibilities as well.  We currently have great meetings in store with interesting topics and speakers, showcasing great venues, delicious menus, contemporary ideas for our Event Professionals and many other possibilities to help make your events memorable for your clients.  Our meetings give great insights to leadership skills, networking, and opportunities to showcase your product and/or company, as well as possibilities of new business for your company!  New members will be invited to attend a “Meet & Greet Reception” at 5:30 p.m. before each program, to meet the Board and be introduced to other members. 

As your Chapter President, I encourage you to get involved!  We have numerous Committee opportunities such as Membership, Marketing, Programs, Fundraising, Community Service, and Hospitality, just to name a few.  You are more than welcome to attend our Board Meetings held at 4:30 p.m. before every meeting at the venue hosting the program.  Witness, first hand, how your NACE Board operates, listen to our brainstorming ideas and goals, reports and accountability of your Board; see where you could contribute to your Chapter!

Our NACE website and up and running!  Keep track of upcoming meetings, photos of past meetings, or RSVP for an upcoming meeting, all with a simple click of a button!         

In conclusion, we have a great year planned with ambitious goals!  We have lots to do and to see!  Mark your calendars and count on making your membership work for you!

Respectfully At Your Service,

Tina Sturchio
