President's Message:

Welcome to 2021!  I don’t know about you, but 2020 was very challenging personally!  As we move past the year 2020, DADOA will continue offering remote webinars until we are able to open back up with in- person luncheons.

 As we forge thru the pandemic era, we at DADOA would love your feedback and are still looking for a few people to step up and help us continue to be successful!  I have been a board member for 5 years and volunteer with some of the finest people in the Industry!  I would have never guessed I would be President as I started out as the Historian. Thank you, Adam Sinclair, for recruiting me!  It has been a great learning and growing experience!

Thank you, 2020 board members, because without you, we would not have come as far as we have! Some of us have picked up several roles to keep us on track.
