Once again it is time to elect our officers, your nominating committee
has finished it’s job and has presented their list of nominees. For
those of you that might have missed the committee report presented at the
October meeting those nominees are:
Bob Leonard President
Doyle McConnell Vice President
Barbara Keen Secretary
Henry Davis Treasurer
Ruth and Marice Ryan
Publicity Chairmen
Nominations will also be taken for the floor on election night, so if you have a candidate for a club office you will be given a chance to place that person’s name in contention. But remember that according to our club by-laws before you nominate that person you must have their prior approval to be nominated.
This seems an appropriate time to remember those members that have served
as officers, below is a list of those members who have held offices in
the past along with the folks who have been the editor of our newsletter.
We want to thank those folks along with all the countless committee chair
persons and committee members who
have so generously given of their time. We owe the continuing success
of our club largely to them.
"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of
comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and
controversy."
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
