Zeier, who now serves as vice president and area manager for HomeBanc's Southern Crescent and Atlanta area operations, urged all those in attendance to "achieve all that you can be." He listed the following ways to accomplish this:

- Step out of your comfort zone.

- Commit yourself to excellence even when nobody else is watching.

- At the end of the day, work too hard to allow yourself to lose.

Attendees at the event were encouraged to come to the party wearing their favorite team's colors or creative fan outfits. Sammy Baker, vice president/builders services for Arrow Exterminators, won the prize given to the association member showing the most spirit for his Arkansas Razorbacks attire.

The meeting began on a somber note, as attendees observed a moment of silence in memory of former President Jerry Ballard, who died recently in an airplane crash in Florida.
