President’s Message
Ken Robinson, CFP®
I hope everyone had a
wonderful summer and enjoyed lots of family time. While it certainly does not feel like it at
the moment, cooler fall temperatures are right around the corner. Now if we could just figure out the
quarterback situation with the Redskins!
August was a quiet month for the chapter, but we did have a great
turnout for our first annual FPA NCA Night at the Ballpark on August 8th.
We have a busy schedule
of great events planned for this fall, starting this Wednesday, September 2nd with our FPA NCA Happy Hour
event at Chima Restaurant in Tysons
Corner, VA. Our happy hour events are always fun so come
out and celebrate the end of summer with your colleagues! Please click HERE for the details and to register.
We are very excited to
announce the second annual FPA NCA Community Day of Service on Friday, September 11th. We will be working directly with a local
non-profit called Home Stretch that focuses on the problem of homelessness in
the metro area. We have also arranged for assignments at Ronald MacDonald House
and Martha’s Table! We look forward to a busy day of community service! If you

Program will be held on Thursday,
