P&CMA General Membership Meeting Members of the Petroleum & Convenience Marketers of Alabama converged on Birmingham in December 11, 2012, as the association held its annual General Membership Meeting and Holiday Reception at the Marriott Hotel. During the General Membership Meeting, the slate of officers and directors for the coming year were elected, and outgoing P&CMA Chairman Dean Mack gave his "State of the Association" report. In addition, the outgoing members of the P&CMA board and associate member board were recognized and thanked for their service to the association during their term in office. We appreciate their willingness to serve the association and recognize them again: Outgoing Chairman: Dean Mack, Turner Oil Company. Outgoing Board Members: Phil Baggett, Baggett Oil Company Rahim Budhwani, 6040, LLC Kris Pierce, Jet-Pep, Inc. Outgoing Associate Board President: James Cochran, Buffalo Rock/Pepsi Outgoing Associate Board Members: Deborah Jones, S & M E, Inc. Carroll Sanders, W. L. Petrey Wholesale, Inc. The final item of business to come before the membership was the announcement of a 2013 Membership Campaign designed to recruit new members into P&CMA. This exciting program, sponsored by PPM Consultants, runs from December 11, 2012, through March 15, 2013, and provides several valuable prizes to the members who recruit the most new members during the course of the campaign. Following the General Membership Meeting, the educational portion of the day began with a very informative presentation on the impact of "Obamacare" on small businesses presented by Keith Ellard, Federated Insurance and Chad Singletary, Carr, Riggs, & Ingram CPA. The information provided left little doubt that Obamacare will have a huge impact on many association members. The afternoon educational sessions featured four informative topics; two specifically designed for "jobbers" and two specifically for "retailers." Each session was well attended and those who participated gave every presenter very high marks for both content and quality. Finally, the day ended with the association's "Holiday Reception" featuring food, beverages and a visit from Jolly Old St. Nick himself. It was the perfect time to relax and network with old friends. 12 OIL PROPHETS WINTER 2013
