President's Message

Welcome to the 2023-2024 Golden West Council fiscal year.

Thank you to all the officers who have volunteered to serve this term, and those who have volunteered their time in the past for the council.

Our main objective is to support the chapters within our geographical area and to promote continuing education, worthy scholarships, the annual REST management and accounting conference, and the CMA designation.

My IMA background includes leading the Salinas Valley/Monterey California Chapter in the 1980s and 1990s, and I have been involved with the Reno Area Chapter leadership since 1996. The IMA has been my go-to organization for CPE and professional networking for over 30 years. My personal passion through the IMA is supporting and mentoring the next generation of accounting and finance professionals.

Our next Council meeting will be at 9:00 AM on August 5, 2023 via Zoom, and we welcome your attendance and input at our meetings.

I’d love to hear from you if you have suggestions or comments regarding how we can make our Council most effective. My email address is scottberry8@yahoo.com.

Very best,

Scott Berry

President, Golden West Council
