Greetings,
So, we have received our first snow fall and the weather has officially changed to winter. I have been hearing we should have a slightly mild winter, with above average temperatures towards the end of the winter. Either way, the holiday season is off to a good start.
I am settling into my new position as Treasurer and familiarizing myself and my staff to all of our new duties. In addition, we’ll continue to support the new President and his staff, until we can completely exchange all of our projects and responsibilities. To ensure a thorough transition, this could take up to thirty days from Canvass Day.
As for the financial health of the Nation, I have already begun the process of delving into financial reports, getting acclimated to our investment portfolios; and have chaired my first Budget & Finance meeting, which went very well. Beginning soon, we will be mailing out Minors Trust Fund statements every other month. I feel very confident moving forward with our new President, standing Council members, new Council members and our new Clerk – to continue making improvements to our fiscal processes, which are already in place.
Respectfully,
Rickey L. Armstrong, Sr.
