Head, incoming IBA chairman, accepts the leadership gavel from Larry W. Myers, outgoing chairman, at the Annual Convention. diana’s 92 counties have plans. One of the statewide efforts will be the distribution of a bicentennial commemorative medallion. The Commission approached the IBA about being the title sponsor for the medallion, and our board approved that investment. A committee has been appointed to work with the commission on the logistical details for distribution. Soon you will be receiving information about this effort, which will be an ideal way to tie your bank and the banking industry to this momentous occasion. While the above items are known, there will, of course, be some surprises. Usually much of that unknown comes from the legislative process, in both Indianapolis and Washington, D.C. We will deal with whatever arises. One thing I know is that I can count on is your support. IBA members have stepped up in the past few years to be among the nation’s leaders in support of both grassroots efforts and contributions to Indiana BANKPAC. The continued efforts in those two areas, along with a strong IBA lobbying team, provides the very best opportunity for our continued success at the Statehouse and turning the corner toward success in Washington. I pledge to you, also, that I will do my best to continue to keep our dues level low. IBA has not had a dues increase since the merger with the Community Bankers Association of Indiana nine years ago. Your IBA is only about 20 percent duesdependent for its budget, less than half what most other state bankers associations run. I look forward to representing you and this important service we all provide, and I look forward to working with the experienced and talented board that you have elected. I am excited and proud to accept the challenge of leading the IBA in 2016. Thank you for that opportunity. t
