Welcome from T.A.P.B.A.!   I am excited to have been given the opportunity to serve as President of the T.A.P.B.A.   I have been in the bonding business for 26 years, served on the Board of T.A.P.B.A. for 13 years (9 of those as Vice President).   JR Henderson has accepted the role of Vice President and with his 27 years in the industry is a true asset as is each member of our board.   I encourage you all to get to know the Director in your area. The board as a whole is concerned with each and every issue our members are facing.   We have witnessed many changes over the years to our industry here in our beloved state of Tennessee.   Now it seems we are continuing to face even more challenges.   Our primary goal is to fight for this industry to preserve it.   I can assure all of you everything this board does in moving forward will be to benefit this industry not just for our own personal gain.   We understand without this industry we are all out of jobs.   We encourage all of you to become more active with T.A.P.B.A. and become members of this association.   All input will be welcome from our members, and our board meetings will be open to the members.   We understand that you all are valuable assets not only to us, but to the industry.  I feel the board has been able to accomplish getting some wonderful legislation passed in the previous years and know this will be one of our primary goals moving forward, but we need YOUR help and input.   If there is anything we can do or any questions you may have please reach out to any board member, and know I am always available to you.   Feel free to contact either myself or JR with any concerns.
