We Celebrated the Big “30″ on July 10, 2010!

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

First State Chapter, IAAP, celebrated its 30th anniversary on July 10th at the Delaware Agricultural Museum and Village in Dover.  The Chapter officially was chartered on July 28, 1979, with 17 members.  Today, First State Chapter boasts 30 members, including two associate members.  First State Chapter is part of the Delaware-Maryland-District of Columbia Division that is comprised of 17 chapters.

Among those in attendance were four charter members:  Roylene Marvel CPS, Pat Palmisano CPS, Jo Rolison, and Dot Willis CPS.  Speaker for the event was Sandy Ratke CPS/CAP, Immediate Past President of the DE-MD-DC Division.  Attendees enjoyed “visiting the past while looking to the future” with scrapbooks, memorabilia, trivia, plenty of reminiscing, and entertainment by the First State Harmonettes.  

Thanks to Roylene Marvel CPS who chaired the event.  A great time was had by all.  Click here to see more photos.

 Congratulations to Kathy Kucek, CPS/CAP.

FSC is pleased to announce that Kathy Kucek passed her CAP exam.  Kathy is an active member of FSC and served as Recording Secretary for 2009-10.

Kathy was first hired as a Foundation Assistant for Bayhealth Foundation in October 2001.  When she interviewed in June 2008 for her current position of Administrative Coordinator for Bayhealth Medical Center, she knew that a CPS or CAP designation was preferred (although not required).  During the interview, she pledged to seek the CPS designation.  Once selected for the position, Kathy immediately joined FSC and registered for the May 2009 CPS exam.  

FSC continues to Grow to New Heights as evidenced by 10 of our members possessing either a CPS and/or CAP certification.  Again, we congratulate Kathy on her accomplishment.
