Welcome to IMA Cleveland East,

Hi Everyone,

I hope everyone in the chapter is doing well and staying safe!  We are quickly approaching the remaining holidays of the year!  Hopefully, you all had a great Thanksgiving.  The chapter just completed a successful Controller's Workshop.  I want thank everyone that helped make this a success.  This goes the board, presenters, and those who attended.  I was worried that a virtual workshop would not work.  However, I think that everything worked well and this platform will work for the coming months.  A big shout out to Sandy Brenner for coordinating this event!

On December 11th the chapter will be hosting an Ugly Christmas Party at 5pm.  This event will be hosted via Zoom.  We will try to have some kind of music and trivia.  Some prizes will be available.  I hope to see you all there! 

The Cleveland East Chapter will also be awarding a scholarship this year.  This will be the Ernest Brass III Memorial Scholarship and will be for $500.  Ernie had been an integral member of the chapter and an IMA for nearly 40 years.  Any Accounting students in the area should contact a board member for information of the application process.    To our chapter members, please pass this along to any students you may think would be interested.  

Finally, if any members of the chapter would like to hold a position on the chapter's board there are positions available.  For our younger members, this could provide an opportunity to gain some leadership experience to boost their resume.   Feel free to contact myself or any of the chapter's board members.
