Thank you all again for making the 70th Southern Chapter ISA Conference, with the Utility Arborist Association a success for all who attended ... climbers, judges, exhibitors, foreman, foresters, consultants, educators, extension, contractors, suppliers, managers, support staff, and supporters of professional tree care.

Special thanks go to those behind the scenes and in the spot light ... Dwayne Carter and his most excellent staff at CUTS, Rae Ann Ham, Beau Brodbeck, Connie Head, Anne Beard, Jessica Carroll, Billy Kelly and Connie Hilson. For me and the many attendees I heard from, it was a great conference, one of the best ... exceptionally organized and seamlessly orchestrated.

To me, you are all ISA True Professionals. Thank you.
