Chapter News

Strategic Planning Board Offsite

On June 27th, your FPA SF board met up at Fort Mason for a half-day of goal setting and problem solving equally balanced with quality bonding and a rousing game of cornhole. Watch for the August edition of the Planner for a recap of the meeting!

FPA SF Committee Vice Chair Positions

Board succession planning and committee continuity is very important to us, so this year we are adding a Vice Chair position for each committee. This role is perfect for those interested in being in a Board position, but want to learn more about the committee and responsibilities of the Board position well before the current Director rolls off the Board. Contact the committee’s Director for more information.

The 2014 Far West Roundup Posse – Bob Finke, Dennis Hoffman, Beth McClelland, Kian Nobari, Ken Perine, Andrea Roland, Johnny Roland, Mary Rose, Don St. Clair and Dave Yeske – is pleased to announce that the registration for our 25th Anniversary Roundup in open. Yes, you got it! No more paper registrations and checks, and still one of the best deals in town for all the education, fun, networking AND CE credits you can obtain in one place. Following tradition, the event will take place at UC Santa Cruz’s College 8, this year from August 14 through August 17. From the great line up of speakers and all the emails we have received from interested advisors, this Roundup is very likely to sell out. So you old timers: don’t wait to the last minute!

For more information and to register, go to our Events page.
