Chairman’s Message
By Sharon Lukich, CPA
“Time flies when you’re having fun!” If this is true, we must be having a blast at TXCPA Dallas, as the summer is flying past us in a flurry of activity and planning.
This month has some excellent opportunities you’ll want to check out if you’re in need of CPE. Steve Tillinger’s one-day, online Mid-Year Tax Update course takes place on August 11. Steve brings an intelligent, insightful and entertaining touch to this important information in an educational event you won’t want to miss. On August 17, Fred Baker and Kaitlyn Kirkhart of BaCo Tech will be in TXCPA Dallas training facility to discuss how their firm made the challenging year of 2020 one of their best ever. Register for Touch it Once: How 2020 Became my Firm’s Most Productive and Profitable Year and learn the secrets to how one organization thrived in one of the toughest periods in history for businesses worldwide. Our monthly Ethics course, under the leadership of Professor Allison McLeod, is a live, in-person event and is scheduled for August 27. Our CPE Council is busy creating a year chock-full of super courses, so stay tuned!
And don’t forget to join us for Thirsty Thursday on August 19, at Blue Mesa Grill. This monthly social hour is one of our most popular events for some great reasons: great refreshments, great location and a greatopportunity to build relationships with the greatest people on earth, your fellow TXCPA Dallas members! We hope to see you on August 19.
While we’re all in planning mode, I want to remind you that when you’re planning your company’s meetings and classes, TXCPA Dallas has a space available for rent that is excellent for both of these types of events. Find more details in an article elsewhere in this newsletter.
A friendly reminder: The final deadline for TXCPA/TXCPA Dallas membership renewal is August 31. If you have not renewed your membership by that time, you will be dropped from the TXCPA roster. We deeply value your participation in the local Chapter and hope that you do too. To continue receiving all the many benefits of membership, we strongly encourage you, if you haven’t already, to renew your affiliation with the Society at your earliest opportunity.
Wishing you all so much fun that time zooms for you this month. Have a safe and happy August!

Leadership Development Academy
Alumni Event
DID YOU GRADUATE… from TXCPA Dallas’s Leadership Development Academy (LDA)? Since 2009, the LDA has been cultivating leadership and comradery within its annual program, and we think this year is the perfect time to celebrate those leaders! We’re planning to hold a reunion event this October, and if you were an LDA graduate between 2009 and 2020, we hope you can join us. Details on the date, time and location will be announced in future newsletters.
If you don’t know what LDA is or would like to participate in our next class starting Summer of 2022, more information can be found on ourwebsite, or you can email LDA Committee Chair Lucy Anne Turek, or Laura McFadden.
PAC Notes
Didn’t get fingerprinted yet?
The PAC has you covered.
Before TXCPA stepped in, every CPA in Texas – along with most other licensed professionals – had to have submitted fingerprints to the State Board of Accountancy by September 1 of this year. Let TXCPA CPA-PAC Chair Terri Hornberger explain here how the respect for our PAC helped change the deadline. Donate today to keep your profession strong.
