Thank you, thank you, and thank you so much for allowing me to serve as the 2008-2009 president of ABWA SWAPEN Express Network. It is such an honor and I pledge to continue to help this organization to be one of the most successful organizations in the country. I look forward to working with our distinguished fellow board members, Rhonda Walls (President Elect), Jane Wood (VP of Finance), Wanda Glez Kras (VP of Communication), Ingrid Forest (VP of Programming), Shelita Kimble (VP of Membership), Terry Hausner (VP of Arrangements), Jane Spellman (VP of Internet Marketing), Becky Hall (VP of Public Relations) and Joyce Strimple (Current Past President). What a wonderful team!
I'd like to take this opportunity to also thank the past presidents (Suzette Peoples, Bonnie Schnexnayder, Beth Tabak, Tonia Cormier and Joyce Strimple); past board members (Marian Burgess and Patsy Stikeleather) for the leadership and legacy you have left for us to continue. I thank you for your continue support in advance.
I look forward to each member's ideas, suggestions and commitment to help businesswomen to develop professionally and personally. If you have any questions or need to contact me you may reach me via email, thomasine@enteriordesigns.com or I'm just a phone call away, 281-835-9789.

Thanks for all you do,
Thomasine Johnson
