President’s Message

Ken Robinson, CFP®

Welcome to the fourth quarter of 2015!  Can you believe we are already in the final three months of the year? The leaves are changing colors, and Halloween is right around the corner! Our chapter had some great events this past month, including a very successful day of community service and a superb continuing education luncheon in Bethesda. We are looking forward to another busy month of programs and volunteer opportunities.

The upcoming October luncheon program will be held on Thursday, October 15^th at Maggiano’s Restaurant in Tysons Corner. The luncheon will feature two great continuing education presentations. The first topic will be Long Term Care Product Analysis followed by a presentation on Investing for Income. Please click HERE for the details and to register.

WE NEED VOLUNTEERS for our annual Metro Washington Financial Planning Day event on Saturday, October 17th from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Columbia Heights Educational Campus in northwest Washington, DC. We are expecting a much larger turnout for this event compared to previous years. CFP® professionals will provide one-on-one counseling and present financial planning workshops to area residents. The benefits are plentiful – providing needed financial information to our community and raising awareness of the importance of financial planning.
