Message from the President
The past CSA year will be significantly remembered; in-spite of supply chain and work force challenges, due to the continued turbulence of the pandemic, “CSA Focus 2022” efforts of the 2021-22 CSA Officers and Directors helped navigate through these challenges.
With the support of various stakeholders including customers, industry partners, officials, and business leaders, our goal for the 2022-23 CSA year is to remain steadfast, charting a path forward with opportunities of growth and continued commitment to meeting the education needs of its members, as we “Continue to Focus in 2023.”
Pete Michelini
CSA President, 2022-23
