I would like to thank Hanie Eng for hosting the summer meeting again at her home for the fifth year and our speakers  - Pat McDonald, Sandy Spencer CPA and Eschew Young.

The event was well attended, served great food cook by our own Gary Floss and included great speakers and great topics that were well done and timely in message.

My favorite topic was regarding the home buyers incentive, the federal tax refund for purchasing a home this year, presented by Hanie’s accountant, Sandy Spencer CPA.  She was very knowledgeable well prepared and well spoken.  Hanie has been keeping her a secret.  I am sure we will have her speak again in the near future.

Thank you again Hanie.
