Hello West Tennessee Chapter members,
I hope everyone has enjoyed a smooth start to the spring season and a well-earned break following another busy cycle of deadlines. As we move into May, I am pleased to share updates on our chapter leadership, upcoming meeting and other TSCPA opportunities.
I’m excited to introduce the 2026-27 West Tennessee Chapter Board of Directors and grateful for the members who have stepped up to serve. They will officially begin their terms following the 95th Annual Meeting and Convention in June, and I am confident they will do an excellent job leading the chapter in the year ahead.
I also want to sincerely thank you for allowing me to serve as chapter president this year. It has truly been an honor to lead this chapter, and I appreciate the support and involvement of our members throughout the year.
Please plan to join us for a chapter meeting on Thursday, May 21, at The CO in Jackson. Lunch will begin at 11:30 a.m., and CPE will start at 12 p.m. The program will feature
TSCPA is going coastal to Isle of Palms, South Carolina, for the 95th Annual Meeting and Convention, June 9–12, 2026. One of the highlights of the convention is the silent auction fundraiser, with all proceeds benefiting TSCPA Educational & Memorial Foundation. Each year, TSCPA chapters support the auction by donating items and experiences, helping fund more than $300,000 annually in scholarships for Tennessee accounting students.
We invite you to consider donating an item or experience to this year’s silent auction. Suggested donations include airline miles, hotel points, vacation property stays, event or season tickets, and unique experiences or gift packages. To donate, please email Karen Eversman at keversman@tscpa.com.
Thank you again for your support this year. I look forward to seeing many of you at our upcoming events.
Sincerely,
William Welch, CPA
TSCPA West Tennessee Chapter President
