Dear Members It was a great honor to serve you this year! I had a great management team to work with. So much talent. The accomplishments of membership growth, new chapter development and well-organized programs speak to the top quality of those involved in WCR. I had a lot of fun visiting chapters and meeting the new members who were attending for the first time. I am still learning everyday and I owe a very fast paced career growth opportunity to the skills I have already developed while in WCR. Each president steps back to reflect on how things could have been better achieved or how much more could have been done. However, with only 3 meetings and twelve months to serve, time rushes by and so many ideas never get to be tested. One can only hope that whatever legacy a past president leaves, a new president and the team will continue down the path making great strides to find higher highs for all WCR members. I am proud of each and every one of you who took my challenge to bring a new member into WCR. We will end this year close to - if not over 1500 members and with new chapters in Monterey, Cochella Valley, Long Beach, Santa Clarita and several others in the works! My wish for each of you is to prosper in 2002 not just financially but to be rich with knowledge of your industry and its newly developed technologies and that you each gain personal contacts that will turn into friendships and great business partnerships across the nation! Have a wonderful holiday season and a very safe New Year. Thank you all for your support! As Always Carole de Losada With out sponsors we can not survive – many thanks to the 2001 sponsors: Santa Clara Valley Chapter, Wells Fargo Mortgage, NHD, Old Republic Title, American Home Shield and to Mile Keser, Silicon Valley Silk Screen who sponsors me as much as WCR!
