Club Vice President Dave Bushman spearheaded the planning and execution of the UVU Accounting Club Social held last Friday. (Thanks, Dave!!!) Prof. Henage and his wife welcomed us into their beautiful home in Springville, and we got the burgers and dogs BBQ-ing right off the bat. (Thanks Prof. Johnson for bringing your BBQ to help things move along faster!) About 45 to 50 students and faculty combined RSVP'd that they would be coming, and I think most if not all showed up, because all we had left was basically carrots, celery, and broccoli.

After most everyone got their food, we announced Amourae Riggs as President-Elect. (See the related post for more info.) Kathy and I shared some of our thoughts about the club and the direction we are heading in. We are very excited for what the future holds! We've got a fantastic group of students and faculty that rival or equal what you will find at BYU, the U, and Utah State (to name a few).

Prof. Henage let us roam the wonderfully spacious house, play walleyball on the indoor racquetball court, watch a movie or Major League Baseball playoff game in the home theater, or just shoot the breeze with each other. Hopefully those who attended the social became more acquainted with each other and made new friends. These associations could very well be the bridge to a new position ten years down the road.

Thanks for a very enjoyable evening, everyone!

If you're having a hard time finding a sitter for your kids, please feel free to bring them. Prof. Henage e-mailed me this afternoon and says his house has been baby-proofed for his grandkids, so it won't be a big deal to bring the kiddos.

By the way, thanks to so many for RSVP-ing. We're going to have a wonderful turnout! See you there!
