President's Letter

Greetings EWI Ladies and Gentleman!

September is over and looking forward to Autumn – or as we say in Oklahoma, HAPPY FALL Y’ALL!! It is always one of my favorite times of the year.  I love the turning of the leaves, the cool weather, and, of course, football!!!  The only thing sad about this Fall is my journey being your president is almost over.  It has been a great journey for me though!!

We had a wonderful time at LCAM this year!  The Tulsa Chapter stood out in several ways.  We were, once again, awarded with the Chapter of Excellence Award and a Retention Award.  But our greatest achievement is our own Felicia Senter being installed as the new Corporate President!  Felicia, we are so proud of you, what you have accomplished, and what you will accomplish in the coming year!  We are all here to help you in any way!

 
Our next meeting will be our installation of the 2019 – 2020 Board!  I know that our new President, Trish Richey, is ready and eager to take over!  She has a wonderful board set up so I know we will have a banner year next year!  The installation will be October 10th at the Mayo Hotel.  

Blessings! And enjoy your Journey!  See you at the Mayo in October!


Lisa Stansill

Tech Tips!

Use the Spacebar to Scroll Up and Down A Page

 
Using a scroll bar, or worse, arrow keys, to move up and down a web page is tedious. So why not move up and down a page more quickly using the spacebar? Tapping on the spacebar on a web page will allow you to quickly scroll down. If you want to go back up, hold Shift while you tap the spacebar.
