President's MessageSeptember 2010
Letter from the President

Ladies – THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for allowing me to be your President this past year. I cannot tell you how much I have enjoyed it. Things were very challenging during renewals and we lost some wonderful firms due to the economy but we bounced back and regained more than we lost. We started a Prayer Team this year and also a monthly Philanthropic Project. I have been blown away by your generosity and willingness to help out those who are less fortunate. You amaze me, ALWAYS.

I also want to thank the wonderful ladies on my board. They made our monthly board meetings fun and exciting. So many wonderful ideas came from you all. You are the best.

Finally, I am excited to be able to finally eat a meal! One thing about being the President, you really never get to eat much because you are always talking! Haha

Margaret Browning will be a great new President and she also will have a great board to support her. However, it takes each one of you to make EWI what it truly is and I hope that you will show up and be even more committed in this new 2010-2011 year.

I truly love you all - Lynda

Your Chapter President,
Lynda Childress
CEO, Luken Holdings, Inc.
