� Recruitment and retention <strong>of</strong> B&I members through continued<br />

initiatives and resources;<br />

� Creation <strong>of</strong> the Technology Committee and new technology<br />

community on the TSCPA web site;<br />

TSCPA Pr<strong>of</strong>essional Ethics Committee as it relates to the AICPA<br />

under joint ethics enforcement and the TSBPA to help protect and<br />

promote pr<strong>of</strong>essionalism. The task force made several major<br />

recommendations;<br />

from September 15 to December 31, 2010, and 404 new members<br />

were recruited in the May “mini” campaign;<br />

� A new member benefit was created in cooperation with the<br />

short videos that answer specific pr<strong>of</strong>essional issues that a<br />

practitioner may have and allows members to stay up-to-date with<br />

the latest industry issues;<br />

� TSCPA was active during the 82 nd Session <strong>of</strong> the Texas<br />

Legislature; and<br />

� Mr. Gregg visited 18 <strong>of</strong> TSCPA’s 20 chapters during his term as<br />

Chairman with one chapter visit scheduled for July.<br />

Mr. Gregg expressed his gratitude to the members and the TSCPA staff<br />

for their help and support during his year as Chairman and hoped that he<br />

made them feel that TSCPA is their HOME.
