Tess,

Thank you for your lovely post written expressly for the Bash Committee Members. The recognition is appreciated. It has been my pleasure to be a continuing member of the Bash Committee.

Tahneesha really knows how to plan events! She opened up every meeting with a list of organized ideas, dates and suggestions; always asking members for their opinion. No idea was too big or too small. My committee planning colleagues are true professionals! I am honored each year to be in such great company.

Tess, I know that your post is about 'us' but truly, VAF would not be possible without you and Hamid. So I send a sincere thank you to both for building an outstanding community we all can enjoy.

I am reminded of an African proverb and the main topic of Hillary Clinton's book, "It takes a village to raise a child." With so much competition in the VA industry (both domestic and overseas) I continually need to return to 'the VAF village' to raise the child within me. There is not one day I do not leave the boards without having learned something I did not know before whether it be a link to a new resource, a marketing tip, a new way to view a task or a 'how-to-do-something' better. Sometimes I just need to recharge my VA-batteries when a day is not going as planned.

I am grateful and I thank you.

Janine
