Welcome to August!

James Russell-Field, Communications Chair and Director of Administrative Services for the Fairfield-Suisun Sewer District

Just a quick message as I try to sneak in a vacation before the end of summer.

Here are a few things to look forward to from CSMFO in the month of August:

  • A CSMFO Student Engagement Committee highlight
  • A “summer vacation” feature from the Communications Committee
  • Updates on the 2022 Annual Conference
  • A hot topic webinar on GASB 87! Don’t miss the webinar Accounting for Lease Accruals Under GASB 87 on August 19th.
  • A busy August 25th, as the Orange County, Peninsula, and Imperial Valley / Coachella Valley (joint) are all holding chapter meetings.

I wanted to throw in a friendly reminder to please provide your feedback with the 2021 CSMFO News & Communications Survey. We have received some great feedback on CSMFO News and content so far and want to make sure we capture as much feedback as we can. Please take a moment and let us know how we are doing!

This is the last reminder! 2021 Conference materials are still available until August 20, 2021. Just use the same Pathable link and log-in information to access the conference site and materials. Don’t miss out on downloading additional slides or content to refresh your memory or share with your team.

As always, feel free to reach out with any article ideas, spotlights, or comments to communications@csmfo.org.
