Thanks For A Great Year!
Susan Clough, CCBO President

The leaves are starting to fall from the trees, the days are shorter and the nights are much cooler. Ah yes, fall is upon us and that brings another season of change. Much like our weather, our organization is ready to change leadership. The new executive officers and members of the board of directors will be elected at the Annual Conference in Hilton Head just a few weeks from now and continue to set the course for excellence in our organization.

It has been my pleasure to serve as the president of our great organization this past year. We accomplished much despite the challenges of time and distance, and all as the result of teamwork. Here are a few of our successes:

  • We have become socially networked and can be found on Facebook
  • We provided value to our members by allowing unlimited staff from institutions to join the organization for one membership fee
  • We provided savings on the annual conference hotel cost for those who come a few days early or stay a few days after
  • We are promoting our organization by soliciting testimonials from our members on the opportunities that CCBO has provided to them and are using them in our marketing materials
  • We revised a document explaining the duties of the members of the board of directors
  • We are close to offering a webinar to our members thanks to the sponsorship of a business partner

I want to thank the Executive Committee and the Board of Directors for their hard work and dedication to our organization. I am thrilled to remain on the board for one more year so we can make progress on continuing projects and to take on new ideas and challenges that ultimately keep our organization viable for you, the members.

I wish you all the very best and hope to see you in Hilton Head!
