Greetings My Dear Link Sisters,

It is with humility, pride, and enthusiasm that I thank you for your vote of confidence. As Western Area Director of The Links, Incorporated, I promise to continue the legacy by Seizing the Moment to Strengthen the Chain.

The Executive Team and I will take The Western Area to even greater heights, because we know that it is as simple as ABC:

ALIGNMENT:  Educating and assisting chapters in understanding and implementing the principles and goals of the National Strategic Plan.

BALANCE:  Encouraging a balance of individual talents, resources, community needs, and time when implementing chapter programs and projects.

CIVILITY:  Modeling and reminding Links to use the Golden Rule to guide their actions in interacting with one another and the community they serve.

I began my formal education in Linkdom in 1973.  Most recently, I served as your Western Area Vice Director.  I understand and respect the vision and goals of The Links, Incorporated.  I understand and respect the challenges that chapters face in implementing and sustaining programs in these complex times.  I understand and respect the awesome dedicated members of the Western Area. 

The Western Area of The Links, Incorporated is only as strong as its individual members.  Please join the Executive Team and me in continuing the legacy through friendship and service.  Seize the Moment…Strengthen the Chain because THE WEST IS THE BEST!  It really is as simple as ABC.

Sisterly,

Constance Fitzpatrick Smith
16th Western Area Director
