PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
Until Next Time
By Dave Chapman, President, PDCA
This will be my last president’s message for 2017 and as president of PDCA.
At PDCA’s Strategic Planning Meeting in January, I will officially pass the
gavel to Larry Moore of Clark Foundations as the 2018-19 PDCA president.
Scott Calloway, Cajun Deep Foundations, will fill the role of vice president, supporting
Larry as they move the PDCA agenda forward. I wish them both a great deal of
good luck and am confident they will be successful in their new leadership roles.
As I have another piece in this issue (turn to page 74), I will be mercifully brief.
This may be my last opportunity in print, so for one last time, I encourage every
PDCA member to get involved in this amazing organization. I have found it to be
a constantly rewarding and educating experience. No matter what your interests or
