I would like to take this opportunity to thank the officers and active members of the Arkansas Instructor’s Society for their undying desire to improve skills for all instructors throughout Arkansas.  This group of officers has worked diligently to recognize the needs of every instructor in Arkansas an address most of their concerns.  Also, this group has really made my trip as president of the Arkansas Instructor’s Society a very enjoyable journey.  It has been my honor to serve as your president.  Can’t believe I have just one more year remaining.
